Go to Suicide Doors, order the front kit and rear kit and a starter kit. Then order your fittings and you just saved $400 over the cost of ordering the total Easy Street kit. We just bagged my wife's last month.

If you just want to drop it the tanabe df210s do a 2-21/4 drop but it's borderline harsh ride, the hotchkis do a 2-13/4 drop with a good ride but tein s-techs drop it 1.7/1.3 and ride great even with 215-35/18s and make the wheelwells look perfect around the tire. If you decide to bag it i have a fbi rear kit and 2 2500 bags im trying to get rid of cheap, just pm me.

If your looking for springs go with the goldline springs for the xB. The lower the car about 2 inches and the ride is actually better than the stock xB choppy ride.

If you want to bag it, look into air lift struts, but wait until the middle of march. Air lift has been having problems with their xA/xB struts. The shock valving makes a whole shit load of noise while driving. They are replacing our brand new struts for free, when the new version comes out. I presonally dont really like the ride of the air lift struts, or the amount of lift. I think people hyped up the struts so much, i expected them to be better. If the next gen air lift struts arent any better, we're going to look at air runner struts next (expensive JDM parts)

Heres our xB:
