i am interested in seeing a lowered xb looks with a 215 or 205 40/17 tire. so if you have pictures that would be great! thanks!

 

A picture of my 1st set of wheels 215/40-17

 

thanks. that really helps! i think i will down size to a 40 series and see if that does not help with the rubbing issue.

 

here's another one 1.5 inch drop

 

hey thanks, both look really good. the reason i asked for pics was i was not sure what a 40 series tire would look like and i think i am going to switch to a 40 because i am having some major rubbing issues now that i have lowered my xB. thanks for the pics!

 

what are you running now?

 

215/45/17 with rubbing occuring on the inside of the fender on both sides, and only on the front and top of the fender on the driver side.

 

205/40/17 Falken Ziex 512's dropped on Tein s-techs
no rubbing

 

your wheel offset also has to do with clearance. You should look into that too.

 

thanks for the help guys

 

Here's another
Falken 215/40/17
droppped on Tein Basics no rubbing issues.

 

that looks really good!

 

215/45/17 45 so it has alittle more side wall. no drop

 

17" look kinda good!
