The only think I've noticed is that the metal straps that are supposed to help hold the bushings on have come off. But other than that - no issues. The folks who are running 20" wheels with lower profile tires have harsher ride than putting on E rated 17" tires. So for example all of the GX's will have firmer tire/wheel combos than an E rated 265/70/17.

Same here on the metal strap.
Regarding those in the Gulf States where Toyota doesn't stock KDSS (you have to order one if you want one) you may be better going to a Lexus dealership since GX's all have KDSS and mechanics should know how to work on them.
