Just bought an MDX--love it!

Not sure why I have zero posts reported... I had a few at least, back when I had my TL... even sold some wheels on here at some point

Bought a 2011 MDX w/tech - black on black. Wishing I could find some ZDX 20's for it at a decent price--but its not looking good...

I'm still shopping for wheels. I have a friend with an odyssey that wouldn't mind taking these. Albeit i have a lot of miles to go on these tires and probably have better bites as a fresh set...

I'm starting to eyeball some lexani 22's.. need to read more on how the ride is though.

Looks real nice, congrats on the purchase. My wife and I just purchased the same model and color last week. Also looking for some nice wheels I love the advance ones but might go bigger. If possible can you post some more pics of yours from the side or other angles? Trying to decide which running boards to go with they have so many to choose from but leaning towards these. Thanks

Nice! I like the wheels that come on the MDX Advance. See if you can score a set of those.

Very nice ride! If I were to upsize I would go with the 19 advance or ZDX or the 20 ZDX. Can always powdercoat the OEM rims dark.

Congrats !! Looks Good. Nice boards.
I have 19 inch powder coat on Advance and I think thats the right size and coating.
IMO - 20 inch is too big and ruff a ride but its your butt.

Congratulations on the new ride !

Not for nothing but those OEM Advance rims are quite nice compared to a lot of the aftermarket choices i've seen out there IMHO .

And also your garages looks kinda like mine with a Lexus IS in ours to but in SGM

Ended up buying these:
20x9

should arrive tomorrow via fedex, then I'll plot out a time to get them mounted/balanced. I'll put up some pictures after I get them on.

imo, the advance wheels would have looked better on the vehicle. Congrats on your purchase though!

Wasn't feeling the money for the 1" 'upgrade' on the advanced wheels. They looked about the same to me, add in a spoke or two. I didn't want blingy--but wanted a wheel that matched the polished/chrome look accents - running boards, handles, etc. The wheels do that subtlety.

Everyone has their own taste though, so I doubt better pictures will convince you. I'll post some when i have the chance though.
