Your wheels are enormous! I've never seen an MDX on 24" wheels before. If you like it, rock it with pride.

Welcome to the site - enjoy your stay here....

Hideous comes to mind but each his own. Trying to make an MDX into an Escalade will take more "bling" than that, maybe you should chrome plate the hood.

Welcome royeco to Acurazine...but...

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

The weight/ride penalty negates any aesthetic gains which in this scenario aren't much.

Sorry man, I'm not feeling it, but if now 26's float your boat, I'd be curious to see the rubber band tires required for that setup.

You work for a performace shop?

No, I have a friend that owns a wheel/tire shop. I'm the NEWBIE here. I just got the MDX a couple of weeks ago. You sure can't find much info on them.

I gently customized mine with factory-available options (fender trim, Sport running boards, roof rails w/ cross rails, etc) and some minor aftermarket stuff (like matched tint, iPod integration, etc).

Bro......it's an MDX, not an Escalade, or Suburban!!! Sorry, but that looks ridiculous.

Would never go above 20s on an MDX, IMHO!

Royeco, unfortunately there's not much for the 1st or 2nd gen MDXs. Here's a link for a group buy on lowering springs. CAIs - I believe some guys use the Honda/Acura 3.5L V6 intakes. K&N makes a drop-in filter. As for exhausts, they're only muffler options really, I don't know of anyone changing out their exhausts, although I would assume a 2004-2006 dual exhaust would bolt up to a 2001-2003 (with a different bumper of course).

Excelerate Performance offers a P2R 3/4" Throttle Body Spacer and two P2R thermal throttle body gaskets for the MDX, click here.

As you probably know, wheel/tire packages are plentiful. Other than that, not much.

Think its a bit too big. Probably look fine on a H2 or something but it's just too big for the MDX, but if you like it. It's all good.

Both the X and the H2 look well, not good.
Such a heavy car on so small a tire I hope there are no RR tracks around. There is an Amtrak crossing in Htfd Ct that claims rims and tires almost every day.
