|
|
is there a fitment guide that i can use to shop for rims for the Xd? like what will fit without rolling fenders and no rubbing. 18? 19? 20? what offset would be needed to install these? i was wanting 18s or 19s 20s i dunno. i don't think that would look right or even fit.

What is the bolt pattern and offset of the 08 xD. I've searched through the data base but have not been able to find this information.
our xB is 5 x 114, but not sure if the xD is the same even though the stock tire size is the same at 16" |

xD is the same as the tC, 5x100. I know two xDs in SoCal that are on 19's but one of them isn't dropped (last time I saw the car anyways) and the other is on Sprint springs. I don't remember, but I think the dropped car does experience rubbing (don't quote me).
Fairly sure that putting 20s on the xD is going to be a stupid idea since you will probably have to roll the fenders to clear them. Besides, why go above 18? The larger the tire the worse your gas mileage is going to get. 19s-20s I can see working on show cars ONLY, not daily drivers. |

| Well tirerack.com has 20's for the XD but with 225/30 size tire they usually don’t sell sizes for a car if there going to rub or need modification. I wouldn’t suggest getting 20's and lowering you car because I think that would definitely rub. |

| i'm looking at getting 18s. i was looking at the AR haze 363 series blk with polished lip. i like the 6 spoke style and i want blk rims. i've been searching and these seem pretty cheap. i don't want to spend a lot of money on rims and tires. and i don't care about the brand. |
