I have been thinking about it. I'm wanting to eventually install Brembos all the way around and I need at least 18" wheels for the upgrade. My ony question is since we have 4x4 setups, is it possible to go with that large of a wheel setup and still not have alot of gap between the tire and fender?

WA 2 FST, In that signature of yours, is that the same Expy as your wives (the one with the Lightning front bumper and wheels)? If so can you post a recent pic? I have not seen it with the Billet Grilles yet. I really want to add the lightning bumper with the billet insert. The Lightnings look awesome with the billet inserts. Also do you have aftermarket shocks on that 4wd? I have not been able to find any aftermarket shocks. Do you have the 4 corner load leveling suspension?
In regards to that question about the gap between the tire and fender: It depends on how small your tire is. If you put a low profile tire (35 or 40 series) on an 18" rim you will have a large gap. However, if you put something like a 285/60 on the 18", the gap will be just about the same as the stock look... Hope this helps..
