pool of water on driver side carpet after big rain

hi, hoping someone may know the cause of this issue and a fix to it.

after a pouring rain, noticed a puddle of water pooled on the front driver side carpet when i press my hand down on it.

other sources i've googled mentioned drain clog on sunroof or a/c drain line clogged, i will have to check the drain hole on sunroof to check if that's the cause of my water issue, can't be a/c since it's not hot enough for summer.

i'd appreciate if there is a picture or manual online that pinpoint where the drain clogs are on sunroof and other drain holes like on the windshield, which i suspect may be another cause of the leak.

this is a 2010 Acura MDX (technology package i think). thanks!

separate question, what's a good tire recommendation to replace on 2010 acura mdx? all 4 are due for replacement soon, and only costco tire shop nearby and independent tire shops with mixed reviews.

Pop off the A pillar on the driver's side, you'll see if there's a leak.

thanks thoiboi, leak is found under the carpet. pillar isn't wet to the touch. do you think leak is flowing through pillar if not drained properly from the sunroof and pooled under the carpet on the front driver side?

where would clog in the windshield drain hole cause leak? wanted to consider all possible clogs.
