Talking New the Hummer World and loving it

OK guys I popped my cherry (well twice really) last year and bought my first new car after graduating college and getting a real job and it just happened to be a silver H3 and I absolutely love it. I did get one with the chrome kit (brush guard, door handles, fuel door, and mirrors) but hey the wife has to like it too!!! Now that I got my foot in the Hummer door, like everyone else, its time to stand out and start customizing right?!?! I build golf courses for a living and I am on construction sites and in the mud and dirt more hours of the day than the highway. I'm looking to upgrade to larger stronger tires for more ground clearance and better puncture resistance because I'm often driving over recently cleared areas with lots of sharp roots, sticks, and rocks. Now any suggestions? I have been debating with myself and friends over leveling or lifting. Being that I'm off road so much I feel that a small lift with new better shocks would be better than leveling or cranking torsion bars because of the added strain on stock parts. I don't feel that anything over 35 inch tires are necessary but I'm not sure what I would need to get those under the truck without rubbing. Also I was thinking about upgrading the exhaust and adding a cold air intake to add a little HP. Had anyone added these to their ride? Ive always had either a truck or SUV but never a Hummer and I think that this would be a good place to start since you guys have had them and I'm sure about every mod out there has been tried by someone in the forum. Help a new Hummer man stay a hummer man, any thoughts on how to make this one even better??
