Hello.
Just wondering if I can use the 16" rims from my old 2008 Honda Pilot on my new 2014 Honda Pilot for winter tires ? I think I would have to use a 235/75/R16 winter tire but not sure ?? Thanks

No, you just need taller lug nuts to accommodate the thinner steel rim vs the thicker Al rim.
The 2nd+ gen have the proper 14mm lug studs while the 1st gen had absurdly under-engineered 12mm studs. Guess Honda realized that this was a homicidal neglect of safety and owned up.

I just want to put a 5 " lift kit with 17's with BFG's on the pilot with custom skid plates for upstate winter / camping driving
