Thanks for the update.
Based on your recommendations, I have bought the 3rd row Hyundai rubber map (fits well) and I have the weathertech digitals for the front and middle row on order.
 
I bought and received a mat from ebay (vendor keepyourforkman) $50 +12 shipping anywhere in NA. The vendor shows it in place with the two 3rd row seats in place and it does work as show (not bad really). The mat is actually cut for a 2 row Santa Fe which doesn't have the storage box on the drivers side - so I trimmed it. I am pretty happy. (My wife check out the official Hyundai one and it was similar in design at double the price).
 
Thanks for the help.

The mat looks better than the Hyundai one.

I received and installed the Weathertech digital fit weather mats in the front and middle row. They fit perfectly. Not inexpensive but nonetheless worth it. Lightning years above what Hyundai offers (BTW, Hyundai's OEM mats are made by the same company).
 
Thanks for the help.

Hello: Just wondering why you would want to change to 16 inch tires. Your odometer and gearing will all be incorrect for the power train. 18 inch tires give a better ride as well as better ground cleanance.

Thanks for response. Only reason is the cost of the 18" tires. Maybe price will go down before I need replacements. My assumption is that the larger tires are just a styling decision by the manufacturers that results in higher costs for the consumer, and even 15" would be adequate.

just ordered Weathertech for my recently-purchased used 2009 SE AWD since I had Weathertech for 6 years on SE Pathfinder with no leaks, no scratches and no damage to weatherstripping that I could see.
