has anyone ever used 19x7.5 rims on a xB? Bolt pattern is, of course, 5x114.3

if so, any pictures?

if not, what is your thoughts on fitment and looks? will it fit without any issues?

(btw my xB is not lowered, yet)

Depends on offset... But generally yes they will fit

I have 18 x 7.5 with 35 mm offset and the fitment is spot on! I'm not lowered, yet.
I have 225 mm wide tires and it is flush w/ the rims.

I know they are 18's but I thought your question was about the 7.5 width.

(this picture was meant to show my exhaust, but you can see the width)

also, My wheel tread

you'll be fine running those, depending on offset, but you shouldnt rub or have any problems with size. I have 18x7.5 +40 and have no issues... unless Im aired out haha.

 

[chr1s]

yeah i figured it shouldnt be a problem but i just wanted to check.

i also forgot to add in there, in your guys opinions, how would the ride quality be with the 19 x 7.5?

On stock suspension... will it suffer drastically or just a slight difference?

and im unclear if there is a sensor that has to be replaced if i put the new wheels on?

The ride suffers, from what I have heard. I don't have them myself, but you are getting significantly less side wall to absorb the ride.

As for the sensor, are you talking TPMS? If you are, then yes, there is a sensor that needs to be changed to the new wheels.

 

[phobic]

well with 19s you'll have a smaller tire, which means less rubber between you and the road so yeah, you'll feel the bumps a bit more. Ive always loved my 18s, never noticed much of a difference with them on springs or air bags VS the 16s.

update - i was gonna scoop up the wheels from a buddy but it turns out they were stolen this morning from his garage... dang what a bunch of theives

 

[BLCCprez]

WOW, what a bad one. That sensor, what happens if you do not replace it with a set of new wheels? Will it just not read the tire pressure?
