imo 19's are too big for xB's, but the wheels themselves look good. Nice lip in the back.

they are 19x 8... offset is 30+ .. backspacing is custom at 5.75mm or something similar to that... i love them, they are absolutely amazing... i did notice on the passenger rear side, it rubs severly, over bumps... i went up to boston this weekend for hotimport nights, and the way home, was HELL... but it rubs by the fender about 2" up from the side skirt,. i need to fix this but dont really know how to? anybody out there know how... i have 3 degrees neg camber in the rear, maybe if i deleted that, then i would be set... any info on how to fix this problem? i would appreciate it greatly

id take your wheel off and look at your wheel well and find the place where its rubbing, then go from there, it might be something easy like the plastic in there you could trim out, take a look and let us know

here is what i did soo far to make these fit without any sounds or anything... in the front, i banged out metal where it was showing signs of rubbing... and i trimed the plastic lining with a dremel, and smoothed it out so it wouldnt cut anything... in the rear i jacked it up, and put a metal bat with rubber grip in the well where it was rubbing, and lowered it slow, and pushed back and forth to bend as much as i could. it bent it to some degree, but it still will rub im sure, and it cracked the paint... i dont know what else i can do though?

a couple inches above the side skirt... on the fender... on the lower part that is... im thinking that if i get rid of the camber, then i will be ok.... cuz isnt the onetongarage kit a 10mm shim with dogbone plates for the camber?.... so when the wheels rubs, it is on the lower portion of the wheel, at about a 5 o clock position if looking at the wheels as a clock.... im trying to give a visual.... let me know if you think that will work

ok thats looking at the passenger side right? thats where i had problems, im on 20s and had to hammer that back, you could also roll the fenders there to, i did crack my paint and had to have it repainted by a scratch and chip guy, thats about all i can tell ya, but i think thats your problem, i would hit bumbs and that part would scrape a little of my tire away every time i hit something in the road, if its the metal thats more inside the wheel wheel i also had to hammer that in. So ya get the hammer out. haha let me know if that helps

one of those orange plastic malots, not metal because itll do more damage to the paint, i just hit it lightlymoving it out away from the wheel until i moved it where it needed to be, i ended cracking my paint and had to have that touched up, you might wanna try a heat gun and warm up that area and just take it slow, you can also use a baseball bat but ive never had any experiance with that

First, did you provide Boze with the specs for the wheels or did they spec it themselves? Second, did you inform them that you had the shims and camber in the rear? If you didn't, I would guess your problem would be solved by removing the OTG camber shims.

heres an update: took the camber off and wow i rub soo much more, but i am still on 10mm shims, so i am hoping that without anything i will clear the fender... if not that sucker is going to be banged flattt.... it sucks but with two people in the back seat and me and my girlfriend in the front, we rubed right out of the driveway... couldnt even fit a finger anywhere within the wheel and the fender gap
