I'm picking up my XD tomorrow and was considering wheel spacers. How wide can I go without any kind of add on body work?

I see spacers in all sorts of thickness ranges.

what are the specs on the wheels? and tire sizes taht come on them if you give me those specs and can let you know how much spacing you can go

TRD 18's are 18x7 +42 I believe... as for tires I dont have the slightest clue...

misformartin · 12-14-2009, 03:32 PM

alright if they are those said offsets then depending on tire sizing you can run like a 25 mill spacer... so i would reccommend getting in contact with penguin garage and getting some hub spacers in 15 mill and then maybe throwing another 5 or 10 mill spacer ont he lug side.. : ) wouldlook oh so sick

thats makes a +17 offset using 25mm spacers! that won't fit even my xB. 7" wide with 35 offset leaves maybe another 5mm from face to fender.

hmm... weird because im running 18x9.5 +24 on my xb.. and on the xd im running 18x9 +30 in the rear on the xd.. which by using the offset calculator he can run the trd's with 25 mill spacer and get semi flush....

JDMJim · 12-16-2009, 10:24 AM

my 17x7's on the xD are about 5-7mm from flush. my xB1 with it's 17x8 +25 and 17x9 +20 flushes the front and 5mm( if that) poke on the back.

i always believe that the offsets will have a discrepancy based on the wheel design.

agreed

I'm running TRDs 18s (the actual specs: 18X7.5 +42) mated with Toyos 225/40/18 with NF210s. Would like a wider, flush stance without having to buy new rubber or wheels.

xD is still taking baby steps at just under 2500mi. So, I'm open to some technical recommends on how I might achieve this.

Thx.

You can pick up some wheel shims and achieve your goal.
