2017 RDX Snow Tire sizes

My tires are 235/60/R18, which have a circunferance of 91.4"
I have a chance to get a set of snow tires, nice rims & tire sensors! for an attractive price. Bolt pattern & offset are the same, by they are 235/65/R18, with a circumference of 94.3", which is 3.2% larger. And about 1" larger diameter.
Other than making my Speedo read 3% lo, is there any problem with the higher profile tires? (Its winter, so hi speed cornering isn't in the cards)

Hey Dan, how do you know the tires would fit?

im having a similar issue. I have 2017 RDX and I’m looking to pick up tires without breaking my bank. I am seeing a lot of MDX wheels with tires being sold but MDX sizes are generally 245/65/17 from the selection. I too am interested in learning would a different size rim and tire off 2016 MDX fit my 2017 RDX.

thanks to all in advance

check out this site
https://www.wheel-size.com/size/acura/rdx/

it tells you the diameter, circumference, im width, offset & bolt pattern for any vehicle
You can then check this against the vehicle that the wheels are from
in order to fit, the bolt pattern must match (5 x 114.3) & the circumference must be close. The offset (The distance in mm from the center if the rim to the mounting edge should be within about 5 mm of the RDX one of 45 mm.
My only issue is how much variation in circumference is acceptable.
