It's not like there's a huge chart in the description or the bolt pattern in the title.

What the chart in the description doesn't cover is being lowered. They'll fit fine if you're at stock ride height, but if you're lowered, selecting the proper tire size to prevent rubbing will be critical. A mild drop (Eibach Pro-Kit, Tanabe NF210 or TRD springs) will work fine with 225/40-18 front and 245/40-18 rear. A heavier drop will require fender rolling or tires with a little bit of stretch to keep from rubbing.

Sorry about the vague starter. Yeah i read the chart and know it says they will fit. My question was mainly regarding the staggered fitment of the rear and whether anyone knew what fitment issues I might run into would be as far as tire sizes and how much they might stick out, etc. Always had trucks and never dealt with this stuff. I know it already has some drop springs though I don't know which ones as they were already on it when I bought it a couple months ago. Thanks

CIONIDE pretty much covered all you asked. Oh man, I clicked the link to check how wide the wheels were but bidding ended. Did you bid for it?

I figured you just wanted to make sure they would fit with your set-up. Some people on this site just look at the basics, and don't consider all the other variables involved. Based on the wheel sizes and offset, the outer wheel lips will be pretty much flush with the fenders both front & rear (due to the staggered set-up). Have you looked under the rear end of your xB yet? Most springs have the manufacturer name and spring model labeled on the springs themselves. If you can let me know what they say, I might be able to give you even more help than the generic info I posted earlier. Ignore the other comments above; some people forget that they were noobies once upon a time with questions also, most of us are here to help you enjoy your new Scion! Keep the questions coming.
