I might have an option for you but we don't have any confirmed rear suspension enhancement options for a 2016 Honda Pilot. That said, the Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs may work but we'd need a measurement of your rear coil springs to confirm. You'd need to measure the gap between the coils in the middle of the spring with the vehicle as it sits. You do not need to raise it. Ensure that each side of the vehicle is within 1/4" (0.25") measurement of the other.

If it's 1" for example then you'd need the Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs for Coil Spring Suspension part # CSS-1125.
