I would like the advice of some of you off roaders regarding the way I should go with my upgrades.

1. Wheels. What size and off-set is needed for the 33x12.5? Any recommendations?

2. Skiders. Should I custom build skid plates or go with the Isuzu-made bolt-ons? Cost versus quality and ease of fitment/construction... Your thought?

3. Sliders. I have heard that weld on sliders can 'oil can' the frame, and the company making mine recommends reinforcing... How do I do that?

I appreaciate the insight of the experienced, being a rookie myself. Thanks all.
