Default Scion XB on 19" wheel

What do you guys think? they are 19x9 in front and 19x10 rear.. 245/40 tire in front and 275/40 in the rear.. same as s550 stock size. No rubbing fits perfect.. Someone said they look kinda small on xb.. thoughts??

Not sure. However Victor made our last large batch of Club Lexus decals. All 3,000 of them I think it was. I've known him since those Import Beat days at UCR haha.

Looks pretty sharp! I'm not 100% sure I'm sold on the taller rear tire idea- I might have used 275/35-19 instead.

The xB is so darned tall it can use all the wheel you can throw at it. I'd probably do 20s and perhaps even 21s. But I am insane.

Any, as you already know, your xB "needs its' stuffs dumped."

I'm thinking about putting some 20's already.. and lower it a little. I think it'll look good. Not sure about 21 cause they are little too heavy and this car only got a 2.4L motor..
