Have been fairly happy with the 20's, however I have always known that 18's would be much better and I do spend my time offorad in slight panic mode and watching the TPMS like a hawk. Snagged a ripper deal with a bloke the other day and he dropped them off yesterday. Tyres are H/T, however they will do for now (few weeks) or until I decide I don't like the 18's and whack the 20's back on.
Taking off the 20's, they're surprisingly bloody heavy, much heavier than the 18's. TPMS hasn't kicked up a stink yet, so hoping they have sensors and are compatible, although only driven to the carwash and shop.

Changed air filter and cabin filter again today, cabin filter was filthy!
Air filter fairly chokka too, only replaced it about 3 or 4k ago. It seems it keeps letting really fine dust through too, just a very fine coating in the airbox, bastard of a thing.

Try putting a thin film of vasaline or Hyrdo-seal Silicone grease around the lip where it seats in the airbox and lid ( readily available @ Bunnings plumbing section about $5 for a tube ) fantastic stuff, great for o- rings etc, etc waterproof
