Default Before and after - Was 35's on 20's, now 34's on 17's
It had 35x12.50x20's when I got it - Really wanted more sidewall than that... Made the change today. I'm much happier with the 34-ish x 17's. (305-70-17 Toyo AT2)
Top is before, bottom is after...

Looks so much better on the 17s!

So jealous of the half doors too, never an option in Australia :(

Y, I don't get why people go with 20's in general unless you have 40"+ tires. I think around DFW here a lot of dealers will set em up that way and people buy em not thinking much about it. I prefer 17s myself and agree the after pictures look better.

Wow, for the age of that X it sure looks to be in great shape. And especially for having half doors. That is rare. Good move on the wheels, too.

Thumbs up Awesome!
Great move, looks much better now. I'm sure it'll be much more forgiving on the trails. Pot holes too haha.

Looks awesome on 17's......I've been thinking about 16's and 35's to get a lot of tire....love the look...

BTW.....what wheels and rock sliders are those? I'm in the market and really like them...
