    I'd remove the roof rack when not in use, but that's me. Looks good otherwise. Congrats on the shots in PVW.

    Agreed on the rack. Trendy as it is, it's not becoming.

    And I don't see anything that makes me think Euro when I see this. How is it a "wannabe?" Later, QD.

    i think it's because of the staggered wheels and stretched tires.

    QD there is plenty of things euro about that car.

    You just need to get better versed on vw's.

    It's the wheel choice(BBS RS) and overall stance that is very euro, you don't see those choices on too many other cars.

    Wheels(BBS RS), stretch/ ride height(stance), overall style, that ish is euro. All the vw guys at nopi last year were noting that it was the cleanest xb they had ever seen.
    I'm fine on VWs. And I know the same "stylings" for Euro are also associated with Japanese cars. The BBS rims maybe not as much but the stance and stretched tires are. You guys are trying to argue about nothing. Hail I gave the car props, man. Later, QD.

    Thanks guys.

    Sorry I didn't go into further detail about the "euro wannabe" part. I've kinda wanted to switch to the vw side for a while, but haven't found one that i really like in my price range. So... i decided to kinda go the same route but with the xb, (mainly stance i guess).

    I fail at making titles that make sense.

    Nothing to apologize for, man. I'm not smashing on you or your car at all. Please don't take it that way. Later, QD.

    Not at all, I just wanted to clarify since I kinda left it open ended.

    That should fit nicely. I'll probably go with the same size next time round.

    Tire stretching originated in Germany.

    Xb looks awesome OP, stance is on point.

    I've never been a huge fan of Scions, though I like the xB, and I REALLY like what you've done with yours. Take the roof rack off though...it looks like an ungainly hat. Otherwise, very cool.
