Lowering a Scion Xa - Clueless...
Hey Anyone...
I'm a newbie at the whole 'car modification' thing. I just bought a 2006 Xa two days ago, and got the windows tinted yesterday. The next logical step with this rather top-heavy car is to get it lowered. The biggest reason i want to lower it is because of the appearance. The 15" wheels really don't fill up much of the wheel wells, so little in fact that the springs and insides of the wheel wells are in full view all the time. I'd like to at least get the car a few inches lower, for a reasonable price. I understand that a side effect is better performance, which sounds great.
I'm also investigating larger wheels, which would fill up the wells, but would also make the car that much taller. What do you experienced people think? I've seen up to 18" wheels for sale for these cars. Is that rediculous?
Is it realistic to try to both lower the car, and put on larger wheels?
Please let me know what you think, and forgive my ignorance. THANKS!
