2nd gen xB lowered with Tanabe DF & 18's

bBisto · 09-26-2007, 06:21 PM

I recently lowered my xB with Tanabe DF210 Springs. I was really hating the big wheel gap (especially in the rear) when I had my 18's on. Now, the box looks so much better.

i can really tell it has been lowered because when i approach the trunk, the roof is more visible =D

lilchris115 if you are selling your 1st gen springs let me know. I'm looking for df210's for my box.

Any tire rub after the drop? I have a 2nd gen. with 18" TSWs with 40mm offset and 225/40s. I would like to do the same, thanks.

That looks sweet!!!! Same color as my new xb, now I know what'll look like when dropped.....can't wait!!!!

The xB looks sweet bro. I'm waiting to get my rims. Still debating on which rims I want. I might get the 19' SSR or Monarch rims.

tanabe springs are fully compressed when released. So there won't be any sag after period of time.

Hows the ride? Any tire rub? Also wondering if camber angel is jacked after you lowered it. I just got an 08 Xb and will be lowering it real soon. I used to build Hondas for years and I had to use a camber correction kit on almost all the cars i dropped. Just dont want to be burning through tires every few months for a 2" drop.

looks sick though!

Looks amazing. How is the ride? I'm having spring choice anxiety...

looks good

I just ordered some Tanabe NF210's yesterday for my white 08 Xb. Im a new to clubXb so I am trying to get my frist 10 posts so I can posts some pics while I install with my 17's. Super Stoked.

slvrbullet8069 · 07-29-2008, 06:49 PM

Here's pic of mine dropped on Tanabe's/18's as well.

xXXb · 08-01-2008, 08:21 AM

Pissed. I purchased a set of Tanabe Springs from a store on ebay. Paid immediately via paypal. The guy send me a message saying they are on back order until September? WTF why would you list anm auction for an item that you do not even have! Im sad..........Well, lets hope they refund my money at least so I can order from somewhere else. September is going into Cold season in Chicago, have to drop it sooner than that!

xXXb · 08-04-2008, 11:00 PM

So the company that I originally ordered from had Df210's in stock. It will probably sit a little lower than I hoped, but I seen a lot of 08 Xbs on Df's and they do look fucking Rad as hell. I wll post some pics this week everything is all set up.

FrankH · 08-11-2008, 01:28 AM

bBisto, I think it looks awesome! Does it rub with/without passengers? I have my df springs right here, I cant wait to get them installed.
Can you post a picture of your car straight from the side? Please..If you have one.

Thanks
