The Scion is Toyota’s attempt at attacking the younger car owner in the US, which to all intents and purposes they have done with flair and design. The idea of the car is a sound one, but you bet your life that the people behind the Scion has no idea that people like Bruce Barrett would even think that he would be getting his hands on one these fun cars.
However, that he has and this is the result, a beautiful looking machine that looks like something that Toyota would not even think was possible. Yet here these cars are, on the outside there are only a few little cosmetic touches, but underneath that square shaped body, there is a sleeping dragon waiting to get out.

Scion Xb 2004-2004 MB5 Chrome Wheels Rims and Tires
Product Description
Tire: Nankang NS II 215/35R18 84W
General: The MB5 â Warrior From The Dark Ages
Unlike its spoked brethren, the MB5 is not a rim with a spoke design but a semi full-faced wheel. This Rim is designed in a way that makes it look like a shield that the warriors of the dark ages used in the ancient times of barbaric wars and competitions. This rim comes in a dark tanned finish and is machined polished to a perfect black tan. The lighter version of the rim is more inclined to a silver finish and goes well with the tire of the car. The black version matched the tire and the silver version contrasts with the black tire. Towards the outer ends of the wheel, where the broad spokes meet the rim, the design forms a seemingly three-sided half ellipse that is carved into the face of the rim. The center of the rim is held fast to the rim with eight Allen nuts and covers the central coupling of the wheel entirely. This cover fits flush with the rest of the rim leaving no need for a hubcap that older car rims require to hide the ugly cast iron wheel and huge coupling bolts. Though the face of the wheel is black, the ring that forms the outer circle of the wheel and holds the tire in place is silver giving the wheel and the vehicle a very classy look. When purchasing Wheels and Tires Package, Package includes: style=”margin-top:5px;”> Balancing and Mounting Lug Nuts Hub Rings 4 Center Caps
