Looks fantastic D! Congrats! New rims and tires must make for quite a different ride. Give us a review when you have had a chance to drive them a bit.

Thanks for sharing!

i'm going to have to disagree. i think that the roof racks keep the X lookins somewhat sporty and without them it looks too bubbly and rounded.the roof racks create nice lines

Rip, Looks good! I'm still trying to decide what wheels to get for my MY11 Vermilion Red 35d.

Nice mods DaRipper! You said the wheels where replicas. Where did you get them and how much did they cost?

Thanks for all the great ideas!

Thanks for the photoshop. I plan to use the roof racks one day. I dont know what for yet. I guess all the suvs I have been around all have the roof rack so Im just use to seeing it.

Looks good. What size tires are these? same as the oem 20's?

do you think I can get away with an all fronts (non staggered) set and avoid changing the flares?

Yup same as OEM 20". Front are 275/40/20 and rears are 315/35/20.

You shouldnt have any problems going with 275/40/20 without changing the flares. There is person on this forum that did that..got to find the post.
