I would have to guess that the wheels have more backspace than stock - most non-stock do (although not all) - This would eliminate the issues of rubbing on the sway bar.
I have run 33's on an X model - off-road, on-road, sand, mud and even mall crawling 
without rubbing - even before I trimmed my fenders and later replaced with Xenons. I did NOT run disconnected - that might be the biggest issue and am not into rock crawling.
No rubbing issues. It may also be important to note that I run 4 inches of backspace... Something to keep in mind if you need to swap them out for a short while.

I believe he meant that pictured are the tires he bought with 2,000 miles on them for just a couple hundred dollars, and he feels they are worth it.
Give the guy a break, he posted a good pic!!
