    I dunno, I kinda like my Yokohama AVS/T's pretty well for the street look. For an offroad look though Maugan nailed it.

    as for the cd changer, it has a known track record for breaking....so you may want to consider how much you spend on keeping it.

    Yeah, I've been pondering it, and what I think I am going to do is keep 2 sets of rims, my stock rims and a set of rock crawlers. I will put some beefy ATs on the rock crawlers and wear those in the winter and when I go camping, and put some nice street tires on the stock rims and use those in the summer for back and forth to work.

    As for the CD changer, I'm just going to hook it up to my JVC head unit with that $40 part from Crutchfield and call it a day. I probably won't ever use the CD changer, but this way I won't have to pull it, keeping the dash as stock as possible (I think it looks nice down there). If I put a cubby in, its only going to tempt me to put stuff in it, and I don't want my VX getting all cluttered with junk like my old Xterra was

    This weekend I am going to change out the fog lamps and the dome light. My serpentine belt needs to be swapped too, its pretty cracked up.

    Thanks for all your help and suggestions everyone.
