Rim test? Or plug for the sticker on your window? hahajk.

IMHO, I think a 26 inch would look good.

It is a Rim test. That decal is always on the car.

Do you mean a +26 offset?

Hmm who makes them that fit? I'd do it! Then I would get lower offset wheels too!

nerd_vitZ · 01-21-2009, 12:54 AM

it looks nice, but the mudflaps would be pretty pointless in the rear since it's WAYY bigger than the flap. haha. but VERY flush in the rear. i think i found the size i want for the rear! haha

Yeah, the rears are perfect size. The flaps will be coming off for sure.

i just read in another thread that if you get 2 pairs of front carbon fiber fender flares for the 1gen scion xb then they would fit.

I think garm would know more about this

Ill look into this for sure! Where did you read this?

No need for flares with a +38 offset ya'll trippin'.fender overlay flares aren't needed till the offset gets into the - Imo then mabey like some rivet on cf flares for a 240z would be pretty badass. Powder coat those rims gold and dump it out on some tein basic's .

If I did flares it would be with at least 0 offset wheels. Not these.

AdeJong 03 · 01-21-2009, 01:37 AM

well the car is fwd so you probably would realistically need flares when you get into the 20s or less.

when i had my miata i had to run flares with 0 offset 15x8 sportmax 002s so i think flares would do just fine.

on rear wheel cars, a negative offset will start to require flares. otherwise you can fit em

Thej3sta2 · 01-21-2009, 08:51 AM

Saggio i love those. Where can i get them at?

They haven't made these for 14 years! You'll need to find them used somewhere.

Love the wheels. But, the stretched tyre is bad news. Find some 7's with proper offset and 205/50's and you'll be looking good.

Haha, why FTL? "Safe" offsets and everyone's wheel and tire combos are so boring lately. Time to switch it up. And this isn't even switching it up, people have been doing this for years!
