Wow.. I didn't even think 8.5" would fit like that. It's sticking out but a lot less than I expected.
I love the last photo :) Anyone wanna try to go wider?

Rim test? Or plug for the sticker on your window? hahajk.

IMHO, I think a 26 inch would look good.

It is a Rim test. That decal is always on the car.

Do you mean a +26 offset?

i just read in another thread that if you get 2 pairs of front carbon fiber fender flares for the 1gen scion xb then they would fit.

I think garm would know more about this

No need for flares with a +38 offset ya'll trippin'.fender overlay flares aren't needed till the offset gets into the - Imo then mabey like some rivet on cf flares for a 240z would be pretty badass. Powder coat those rims gold and dump it out on some tein basic's .

If I did flares it would be with at least 0 offset wheels. Not these.

well the car is fwd so you probably would realistically need flares when you get into the 20s or less.

when i had my miata i had to run flares with 0 offset 15x8 sportmax 002s so i think flares would do just fine.

on rear wheel cars, a negative offset will start to require flares. otherwise you can fit em

They haven't made these for 14 years! You'll need to find them used somewhere.
