Not yet   8)

Mind you, the wheels sit quite nicely inside the guards, so I'm in 2 minds about doing it.   How much did it cost you (if you don't mind me asking).

17"s.

Any larger and I may have had insurance problems (amongst other problems like scrubbing?).    If I recall correctly, you can go 2" above what is factory standard, which is 15" on the SX.

And yet factory standard on the SLX is 16" and is no different in suspension setup? I'm sure you should be able to go to 18's without any problems, but meh. You got em now & they look good.
