One thing I love about the 210's is you can still do a radical drop yet tuck some 18's in the wheel well. I have heard you can go as big as 245/45/18's without rolling the fender if you run 210's...I cannot confirm this though.

if you can run that big of a tire with no issues then you could also get away with a 235/35/20 or 19 .... just saying....

That is just it, I don't think it will work but I might be able to do a test fit since I work at a shop. A 245/45/17 is what I ran on the front of Z28 and even those would rub in reverse.

D2's are a fairly decent, Company that manufactures them is the same company that manufactures K-Sport. For cheaper brands, being able to service and rebuild in the states is always a good thing to look for. Been rolling on K-sports for about 5000 Miles and love them

added:
Also for the K-Sports, ill input a little on the drop amount.

I'm came off of DF210s. Drop in the rear is pretty much equal maybe SLIGHTLY lower.

drop in the front, I went about 2" lower than DF's in the front for the first week with room to go a little more on the Coilover (but no room in terms of ground clearance LOL). so 4-4.5/2.2?

I added manufacturer websites and manufacturer to the already excellent list of springs. I also listed the drop the manufacturer says you should get from the springs. This is not to contradict any previous statements about drops, it’s just information from the manufacturer’s website. Drops are list in inches.

Tanbe Sustec Pro S-0C (Part# TSC121) Please NOTE: This part is listed as a Yaris 5 door compatible. It may or may not work on a Scion xD. Rates listed are for a Yaris. Drops on an xD would likely be more as the xD is a heavier car than the Yaris.

Min Front drop: +.25 Max Front drop: 1.75
Min Rear drop: 1.25 Max Rear drop : 2.75
