2011 xB, going to get the full trd suspension, struts with 1.5" drop springs...so what is the biggest size wheel with the biggest lip I can do with WITHOUT cutting or rolling fenders no rubbing none of that bullshit, just put the wheel on tighten the lugs and go. I wouldn't mind rolling the fenders or any of that but id like to keep my warranty. Thanks guys.

Are you planning on running a staggered wheel setup? If not are you willing to run spacers in the rear? Are you looking to have the wheels flush with the fenders?

lol damn i saw that and was like fuck ya 50 bucks then scrolled down and got sad lol....I'm not sure man I'd rather just do a staggerd fitment because it easier. Do spacers risk any reliability or anything? And as for flush or not I'm not sure I havent got a good look at any 2011 body style let alone xb's on the kind of wheel im lookin for. I'm thinking either a clean 5 spoke like tuner wheel or some split spoke or mesh type bbs style wheel. Whats your opinion? Basically I want to go with the best mix of what looks the best while not risking screwing up anything and voiding the warranty and what not. Thats why I'm going with the trd sus.

Can we fit 9" wide? I really found the wheels I wanna go with but the smallest they come in is 17x9 in a 17" cause I dont wanna go any smaller than 17's really but can i fit 9" wide? Now what offset should i go with if i can fit the 9 wides? They come in +38, +22, +12? thanks guys

^ Those are going to poke in the front. 8.5 fronts and 9.5 rears are your best bet. Look for offsets in the high 30s to mid 40s.

The only thing i can find on these wheels is 17x9...It would be very appreciative if someone can fine me these wheels in a bit smaller width. Heres teh site to the wheels. http://gramlights.com/wheels/57d/details.php

Believe the sizes you posted are the only ones available. Being a one piece wheel limits your sizing options.

I think i'm just gonna go with a high offset, and 35 series tires and do what i gotta do to make um fit. Plus rockin 9" all around would be pretty sick

17x9 +38 offset should fit fine at worse the lip might stick out 1/2 an inch. A lower offset like +35 might solve that, but then the inner wheel may rub the chassis.

17x9 et38 will fit no problems, with a moderate drop. you shouldnt poke at all theres a lot of room under these things. if you wanna go flush you'll have to play with spacers and staggered offsets but just straight up you will be fine

this hardly pokes with 18x9 et25 up front and 18x10 et30 in the back. this is also way lower than you'll be on TRD springs so the fenders i believe were rolled hard

^^^dude that xb is nasty sick, what rear lip is that with the exhaust ports and all???...so no problems with the 17x9's on the front with 35 series tires? Also i was gonna do the trd drop but i think im gonna go with the tanabe DF's cause they're cheaper and drop just a bit more and look sexy as hell.
