Right, you need 30 posts for inline image, but you can use the attachment option under "additional options".

I do want to drop it, but I don't want too bumpy for my kid. Any good suggestion?

Thank you very much! I used to have a 05 White xb, but with kid coming in a few months therefore, I bought a bigger box. This is a perfect fit for me. I still like the mpg of the old one, but the new one has more room. I almost got a SUV... lucky that I didn't.

Re: My new wheels on RS 6.0

I like that Red theme....That's a nice thing about the RS 6.0 I'm betting it's easier to find a color to match the paint in after market products (wheels in this case), but I still won't give up my gold. Ha.

Your car looks really good but it would look 10x better if it was lowered man. If you don't want to shell out big bucks for air bags then there are springs out there that ride well. I might still have my xB when I have kids and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to continue to use the Tanabe NF210 springs I have on my car right now. They're not very stiff at all. They will lower your car 1" in the front and 1.7" in the back to get rid of that 'bucking bronco' look these cars tend to have. I've had Eibach Pro springs on my car also and they were a little bumpier than stock, but handled very well. They also were not as low as the NFs. BTW the 'NF' in NF210 stands for "normal feeling". There is a very extensive thread about these springs in one of the other Scion forums.

Here's mine on the NFs... I've got different tail lights now though.

Re: My new wheels on RS 6.0

Nice look man! Yep needs to come down a bit tho IMO. Eibach kits are nice and the ride is great check them out, or the air ride kit from Scionpro.

Re: My new wheels on RS 6.0

it won't be that bumpy. don't listen to Motor Trend. the car is heavy with a long wheelbase. ButI can be honest, wheels look cool, butI knew exactly what they were before I even clicked the thread. I thought" RS6? i bet black and red rims" ...click... exactomundo! I wanna see some chrome on these red xB's

Wells and rims are super sharp. I love the way it looks.
