Those wheels look great! Much better than the RLX wheels. I call the RLX wheels "old people wheels"

Thanks! Yeah I was gonna go with stock hybrid oem 19s. But its too plain. When I saw these 20x8 with 120x5 lug pattern from the 2017 MDX. I knew I had to get it.

Looks good. SH or FWD? What coilovers? Any codes?

I lowered my 09 RL and it needed the vehicle neutral sensor reset.

Thanks bro, coils took about 5hrs. It was a little pain.. definitely need a hand. It's worthed though. Rides so much firmer and takes he bumps on the road really well compare to factory suspension.

What coilovers?

What was the goal of the suspension swap, and did you accomplish that goal?

Thanks very much for your post.

Megan Racing EZ street coils (blue one)

I swapped it mainly to get a better firm ride because the oem suspension sucks with the roads in my area. Yes I did accomplished it. But the bonus part is to have it lowered 2 inches to hide the wheel gap. Made it look sportier.


But not as sporty as my 91 nsx =)
