I would do 215/40, 10mm spacers up front and 20mm spacers in back, and camber all around.
Also, I think you might wana watch out for rubbing your suspenion with that width and offset. You might need some 5-10mm spacers to clear the susp and flush it out more too.
I ran 16x9 +30 with 205/50 and OTG rear spacer shims. The rims were perfectly flush without camber, but still not very aggresive.

I hope this is a joke being on a VIP site and all. They will fit, but look best with a 3.5 inch drop 195/45/15 tires, -3 camber in front, and -4 in rear. As for looking VIP, not even a little. Save up and get legit rims

To fit a 9" wide rear wheel on an xA or xB you will need AT LEAST a +25mm offset, otherwise the inside edge of the wheel will hit the rear control arm. That's a downside to those Sportmax wheels supposedly "made" for the Scions that they don't tell you about... is that w/o any sort of spacing for the rear wheels, they actually won't work on your Scion.

That and the general opinion is a thumbs down on knock-off/cheap bandwagon brands like Sportmax.

What about 15x7 and 15x7.5 with stretched stock tires. How will those work? and they are not some gay knockoff lol.REAL RIMS FTW.
Also I would also like to know 15x7.5 and 15x8. This is for a stock setup

Check out Clubxb.com. Theyll be better posed to answer your questions. It really appears you're not after a VIP setup, so its more fitting to answer there. And when you do post there, it would help to list offsets and things of that nature. Just an FYI, because widths dont matter without offset.

Yeah, I'm not really after a VIP Setup yet. I'm too broke to get some New wheels but yeah. I wanna get some 15 inch expands or 15 inch SSR Vienna Dishes. But o well, this forum is still the shit and cool :D
