Hi all,

Not bad, if you don't want any lip at all. Also, what is the offset on those? Most Lexus wheels are in the +50 range.

Here's the TSW Estoril that is very similar, and available in 17"-20" sizes:

Here's a picture of the Estorils on an xB, so you can see the lip (even if you're not looking for 20's):

The offset on these are 45mm
I think without lip, the wheels will look bigger....
I am just not so sure about the size....
Is 17" really too small for our xb2???

Offset is good to go.
Visually, the wheel will look bigger with the spokes extending all the way to the rim.
Size is a personal matter; there are plenty of people that love 17's on the xB:
