OG
as for the 2019-2021 it doesnt list aspec but it fits, only ‘isnt for aspec’ due to the silver coloring (which is why everyone paints it)
also quick pic again before springs go on

Yea, I thought about having it added to my 2019 A-Spec but in looking up the instructions on how it goes on, it just seemed like a lot of destruction to get there....why can't stuff just bolted on anymore....? Those wheels look terrific. If we would have stayed in Reno that's likely what we would have ended up with for our winter tire set to avoid having tires swapped out on the factory stock wheels.

The two best colors for the Acuras. The TLX is beautiful. Would strongly consider one, but cars seem to be on the outs. The local Acura dealer said about 90% of their sales are SUV. But man, did Acura get the TLX right.

OK. In that case I retract my compliment on the choices mode360 made and my thoughts on what colors look best on Acuras. Damn, I knew I should have added a disclosure that I was only expressing my opinion.

Very nice: that blue was the other color I debated with myself back in 2018, but being a 50 year resident of Arizona, I chose the white. I like your rims too.

Got it a month ago slowly coming together. Just finished installing the running boards so its easier to access the cargo box when installed.
Frugal me got all the accessories on FB Marketplace/Offerup. Roof rails were $150, Crossbars were $100, and running boards were $200. All oem!
Just need some A-spec front bumper trims and i'll be happy for now!

Very nice. I have a white A-Spec and had the running boards and 'mud guards' installed, which add a nice look to the RDX, as well as some protection from dirt/stones from being thrown up on the paint from the wheels. I've thought about roof rails/crossbars but admiitingly for looks more than anything else...I don't see ever putting anything on top of the car.

im not done yet, still need to lower the car and put the caps/shells on these lug nuts, but i got some new wheels! I did something interesting with the tires too; stepped down from the OE 255/45 to a 245/45. OD goes from 29.1 to 28.7. I've gotten flak from ppl for the looks, but it will give a stiffer sidewall and help the brakes work a little bit better. the color in person POPS. looks soo good. even though this isn't a JDM car, it gives it a JDM look, a la a JDM DC5R with red recaros and bronze mugens. albeit its pearl white and not Championship White. Nostalgia!
I'll post more when i put the springs on and get it fully dialed in. i really want to do black badges and exhaust tips, but too much $$ to justify. might see about doing the calipers in semi-flat black though.
Wheels: Enkei TSR-X 20x8.5 +40
Tires: Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 245/45-20

You know, I was not a fan of the new 20 spoke rim style on the advance aspec, but I think the missing ingredient was having red calipers. It makes the wheel pop so much more, definitely worth it IMO!! Great looking car, enjoy and luckily the Mi winter hasn't been bad yet!!

Doing delivery on that car isn't worth it. Not very gas efficient and the price on the value will drop so quick. If you work for DoorDash or UberEat suggest you get another car. I have Honda CRV for delivery and save so much gas money and the car value still good even high mileage.

Coming out of a 2020 RDX Tech (white/espresso) and into a '22 A-Spec (lunar silver/black). She's a little wet from the rain, but the lunar silver is surprisingly lustrous, even at night.

really like what they did to the front clip. Our 2019 has good brake cooling, but the 2021 makes it VERY clear….
