Default 19's on an xB Camber?

Ok who has 19's on their xB? i plan on buying some and want to know any rubbing/fitment problems.

Also i hear this talk about bigger rims needs camber adjustment. On a 42 offset how do i fix this? where do i buy the part? is it hard to install?

Any help is appreciated

i rolled on 19x7.5 with 215/35 size tires...
on DF210's and i never rubbed even with a fully loaded xB...
you'll be ok .. you can add OTG shims in the back to bring out the wheel to match the front.

If you have the right tools and decent mechanical ability the OTG hub shims are pretty easy to install. I did it at night with shop lights in my parents driveway while visiting. It is nice if you have a torque wrench so you can torque everything to spec, but not necessary. I don't recall if the kit included torque specs, but you can look them up online for the bolt size.
