Wheel Hubs & bearings for Scion xB

Scion xB Wheel Hubs and Bearings

The Toyota Scion xB was manufactured from 2004 through 2015 as both a subcompact car and a compact vehicle based lightly off of the Yaris. The wheel hubs and bearings of the Scion xB are designed to last approximately 75,000 miles, giving you years of reliability. If your Toyota Scion xB needs new wheel hub and bearing assemblies, explore the available options and see what replacement parts will get your xB on the road again.

The wheel bearings as well as the wheel hub make up the full bearing assembly of the Scion xB. This assembly connects the wheels to the axle, which gives the xB the foundation it needs to remain stable. By replacing these parts together as a full assembly, you can install them in a single session, saving time and effort from installing at different dates. This also ensures consistency during installation.

Your Scion xB wheels generate significant amounts of heat during operation, which means it is necessary for your wheel bearings and hubs to consist of strong metals. These include steel, steel blends, and aluminum. These strong metals are able to resist warping, melting, and other damage that can occur due to the heat levels generated while on the road. These metals are also designed to be heavy enough to prevent cracks and splits from debris such as rocks, dirt, and other items. They also resist rust due to moisture from rain, snow, and mud.

While the exact size for your Scion vehicle will vary based on whether you are replacing the subcompact or the compact sets, the hub and bearing assembly for your wheels weighs approximately seven pounds and has dimensions of approximately 8 x 7 x 6 inches. These sizes are for each of the wheels. They are designed to last up to 75,000 miles, but this can vary based on your driving habits, quality of the wheels, and environment. While hidden by your Scion wheels, the color will often be silver, black, gray, or chrome, depending on the specific metals used during manufacturing.

You can purchase the wheel bearings, wheel hubs, and the completed assemblies which are direct fit replacements for your vehicle from Toyota. Other options for your Scion xB include aftermarket brands. Regardless of whether they are direct fit original manufacturer parts or aftermarket, they are designed to fit your Scion xB wheels. The difference between the two is the materials used; the items from Toyota will be made in the same factory using the same materials as the Scion xB. You can make sure youre getting the right item and torque for your wheels by checking your service manual.
