So what is everyone's wheel and tire set up? I've been looking lately and the tire prices for my 18 inch factory wheels are horrible. I want to go with a more aggressive tire than the factory Bridgestone AT... was thinking about adding spacers now and when its time for new rubber, then going with some 33s... I don't have a lift... don't really think I need one.
I'm in Murfreesboro and have a 2008 silver 2 door X with a Tera lex leveling kit, 33" bridgestone destination ,and OR Fab stubby front bumper. Unfortunately I can't make Saturday's either because of work. Hope to meet you all soon!

for buying the 18" rim!
I decided to downsize rims and went with a 15x8 mb72 with a 35x12.50 MTR. It is a tight fit, but everything clears (just hard to clean the mud out of the back of your wheels). These allowed for a slightly cheaper tire. I really liked the duratrac tire, but it isn't available for a 15" rim as a 35" tire. Maybe when I need to replace mine I will switch. That said, the MTR's have been a great tire. Very aggressive offroad with pretty good street manners.
I got these for discounttire online which is a sponsor here. They were mounted and balanced and delivered in less than 24 hours (with free shipping too!).

It wasn't a sports car to begin with and it isn't one now
Not too bad though really. I don't like the vehicle to 'lean' too much so I am not cornering too fast, but it handles just fine.
Offroad it is pretty solid, so I am glad I went down.
