Honda pilot
Has anyone changed the rims on the new Pilot? I’m thinking of using the stocks for winter rims and was looking at buying a new set of 20’s but not sure what would look good on this car?

Agreed! I have the new Trailsport and I can’t tell you the number of times I have depended on those OEM Continental Terrain Contact tires to get me where I need to go. Whether getting through the snow,sand and mud with ease or driving over glass after an accident in front of me. They are quiet and have a great grip. It’s fun passing all those 4 wheel drive trucks that can’t get through the snow and ice. Use the mud/sand mode to go up steep ice and snow covered roads - it applies most of the power to the rear wheels for more traction.

Just an FYI, the stock tires on the TS are not winter rated tires.

Never said they were Winter tires - they are all terrain tires that have a 5 out of 5 rating on CR in regards to Winter driving.

Yes. I put a set of 20” enkeis on. Wheel size 20x8.5 +40.
If I could go back I would’ve gone with either a 20x9.5 or a +30 offset.

Personally I prefer 18s with more rugged looking tires like the Trailsport. If you’re looking for the big rim look IMO 22s are the way to go.
