Default Any Parts available yet?

Just wondering what if any aftermarket parts are available yet for the xD's? Seeing how they are starting to hit the streets, might as well have the parts supply ready to flow with production.

Haven't seen any parts, but been trying to figure out the offset / wheel and tire size for a set of 17s for the xD. Probably will have to wait for the car to come out before committing to a set of wheels.

Hope TRD releases the springs shortly after the car comes out - the 4x4 look is not my favorite in a subcompact.

Like the stock xAs.
I'm pretty sure the xD is getting the same pattern as the tC. It's been mentioned somewhere on here just recently.If so, I think stock tC wheels would absolutely rock on an xD!!!! They would have looked great an the xB too, oh well.

I'm considering stock tC wheels as an option. I can also get a great deal on 17x7 with 35 offset - very tempting, but having wheels sticking out 20mm more on the outside is a bit scary, especially in the front. tC wheels will be just 4mm further out than stock steelies, which is much safer, but might not look as good. Problem of choice..

It's 5 lug for sure. Not forsure tho if it's 5X100 or 5X114???
I seem to remember hearing the xD was to be 5X100 and the xB2 is 5X114.

xD stock steelies are 5x100, 6" wide and 39 offset. I'll try 17x7, 35 offset, 225mm tire width. This would push the outer side of the tire 19mm further out than stock wheel - which looks ok in the back, but the front worries me.

"TRD Limited Slip-Differential"

this is an interesting option... but i just dont see the necessity unless the engine had forced induction (which doesnt seem likely due to the comlete lack of space under the hood).

i guess it would be useful on a stick in some situations, but with the limited number of sticks, its hard to see why that is one of toyotas first available mods...

I don't see a need for the LSD unless you plan to auto-x the damn thing, but again, if you are - you bought a wrong car

Good to Know!
Are clear bras available yet for the xB2/xD? Figured I'd ask in case someone needs one?
