I need help!!

Im buying wheels this weekend for my xb2 but I don't know what size or offset to go with.

I want to go 18s and I know I want to go wide and get that flush look but I don't know what my fitment should be. I don't mind stretching my tires just a little bit and I am also willing to roll my fenders. Does anyone know exactly what rims size, offset, and tire size would be best for my taste?

HELP!!

Hit up severedvegan. He should be able to help you. Also, there are threads all over about fitment. Try searching the forum a bit and you may find just what you are looking for.

 

Thanks, I'll search around... 18x9.5 +35 is what I want but every one runs different sizes so its hard

 

You'll be fine with that sizing and a 215/40R18 tire. Roll fenders and you should be fine.

 

A 215 won't be too much stretch.? Also the rear seems like its wider on the xb2

 

a 215 would be just the right amount of stretch. you could technically do a 225 too but it might take a little more work in the front.

 

I'm running a square setup and my rear is only 5mm more aggressive than the front. Get your fitment figured out, then you can add spacers if you want/need to.

 

I'm thinking about going 18x9 +30 and like you said just use adapters in the rear of I need them ...it's probly safest since I don't want to stretch too much

Thanks guys
This helped a lot

 

Not to thread jack or anything, but this is kind of like the same issue i'm having. I am running 18x9 +35 all around. I am thinking about going 5mm spacer in the back to match the poke in front. Would this be good or should I go bigger?

 

It depends on your tire size, how low you are, the work you want to do, and the final look you want to achieve.

 

I am running on 225/40/18s and I am lower in the front by a few mm. there is a little gap still in the back so I can go a little lower. I was wondering if I need extended studs if I go more than 5mm?

 

I was going to go 8mm and they told me that was the most I can go without adapters or extended studs...so I went with 1 inch adapters on 18x9+ 35

 

Migi_XB2 How long have you been running that size adapter? Have you had any issues? Where did you buy it from? Thanks

 

About 2 days lol it rides real good tho and the car looks aggressive ...I'll post some poctures tomorrow so you can check it out...I actually found them on an Craigslist post brand new....T6 6061 aluminum....

What size wheels are you running and what suspension are you on?

 

im running 18x9+35 on 225/40/18 tires all around and i'm running ksport coilovers

 

18x9.5 +35 with a 225/40 would have fit perfect, I was 9.5 +40 and it was stupid tucked. I could have easily fit a 9.5 +20 with a 215/40

 

It seems like my front fender will hit my tires running on 225/40. Do you think running 215/40 be ok with my current set up?

 

Oh that was for rear fitment, lol fronts a215/40 will do fine what specs again? 18x9 +35 will fit fine with a 215/40
