I'd like to know if there have been any changes to the MDX's wheel specifications (offset, etc.) from the 2002 base model to the 2006 model. I recently sold a set of Mille Miglia 17" wheels (that were used with the snow tires on my wife's 2002 MDX for three years) to a friend that purchased a 2006 MDX. He says the lug nuts don't seem to seat quite as securely as on the stock wheels.
Does anyone know if there have been any changes that would cause this?
Thanks. |

| the mounting and rim specs are the same for all the MDX's, he might be having trouble cuz after market rims are ment for a mide range of vehicles, were the factory ones are purpose built |

dac17,
Is your friend using the lug nuts for his OEM wheels? If so there is a possibility that those lugs nuts will not work with the Mille Miglia. I know when I installed my aftermarket wheels I had to purchase a new set different from my stock lug nuts to mount my new wheels.
Hope this helps.

| Yes; the answer is that we need longer lugs. Thanks for the tips that got me focused. |
