Very nice. I like that they finish off the whole appearance of the white RDX without crossing that line into 'pimpmyride'.

Congratulations!

Hot damn, those are a brilliant choice. Very tasteful, but with a hint of badass. Well done, sir.

Can you share the specifics with us? What brand/model of wheels/tires? Thanks!

I like them better on your RDX than the MDX, since I really like the stock MDX wheels. Well, actually I really like the stock RDX wheels to, so maybe I should just shut up

Looks good. Would like to hear how the Toyo's work for you with regards to handling vs stock Michelins.

Nice choice, DNP! The wheels look great, and for a point & shoot, the picture close up running from the back wheel to front looks amazing. Nice work!

Very nice -- classy wheels!

But honestly 20's just aren't enough for me any more. We're sticking with stock wheels on the wife's RDX until we get a kit that lets us mount 40's like this guy did:

So you went up in tire diameter???

I was recommended to go with 255/40 for 20's....but I like how yours sits!

No lowering springs or nothing?

DNP Nice Rims. Looks real clean on the car. I see they are 20x8.5, but what offset did you go with? Stock +45?
