I'm looking at getting my first set of rims for my Hot Lava xB. I like these American Racing Hustler rims in 18" and getting the chrome inserts powder coated to match my car. Just looking for some opinions on it. Thanks

if they have that depth of a wheel in the 18 will look good. but that look might be a 20 inch wheel they took a pic of.take ur time and find a wheel that catches ur eyes and that u tink about alot.just my opinion.

Actually i saw both the 20" and 18" at a place in san diego. the 18 of course does have a smaller lip but still looks nice. i defiantly want a rim for my xb that a lot of people don't have at first i looked at the axis widetrack but that is a popular rim for the xb.

i have only seen these on a 2nd gen xb chrome with the black inserts i think that they would look good on the lava with the color matched inserts

That rim color matched would be nice... GO WITH THE 20"

don't you have to do a little modification to put 20"s on?

20's!!! not much work to get them to fit, any shop that knows what they are doing shouldnt have a problem, will look better IMO

Thanks, the funny thing is that they are also Dale Earnhardt Jr. rims, i guess thats why they cost a little more than average.

well, i decided to go with the Axis widetracks (90mm upfront/120mm back). the other rims didn't look quite like i wanted after i photoshopped them. thanks for the opinions though. i should be putting the widetracks on tomorrow and dropping the car later in the week.

Hey, let me know how much it cost to powdercoat. I'm looking for some rims for my tC and like the black spokes and a SW lip to match.
