noobie here! question about wheel fitment.

Hi guys im new here. I recently purchase my Gen2 2011 MDX and im pretty happy with it. I have a quick question hoping you guys can help. mdx gen2 runs with 5x120 lug pattern and I was wondering if bmw e92 wheels would fit? they are running 5x120 as well however the bore size is different. anyone here tried fitting one on their ride if it fits? any help would be appreciated. thanks

you would need a hub centric ring adapter to convert the bore size

wheel bore can be fixed by properly sized hub centric wheels. There's so much more to it than just bolt pattern and wheel bore though.. how about width? size? Offset? Test fit them to see

^usually made of plastic.
you would need to know the BMW's bore size and Acura bore size, then just buy the appropriate ones. usually, by googling and finding products. then you can investigate even further by googling said product model #
