It's impossible to ensure fitment based on specs alone. The front brakes are the biggest hurdle when it comes to wheels.

its better to tell us what the wheels are, but i say most stock acura/bmw wheels will not fit due to the bbk, and aftermarket ones will have to confirmed by manufactor

Reason for ZDX stock wheels?
Easy to find, cheap. Probably stronger / more reliable than aftermarket wheels @ same price level.

Doubt it. MDX ASpecs need spacers to clear the brakes. I bet the ZDX are the same.


What's your theory behind them being more reliable and/or stronger? I haven't heard of anyone breaking an OEM wheel. They are likely heavier.

Just guessing comparing them to aftermarket.
Probably heavier is correct.

Damn, I had an idea but I think it's gonna be hard to find the perfect fit for this beast

^^^Agreed. I don't think they'll clear the front brakes. Btw, I've seen plenty of OEM wheels break, crack and bend. I also think Honda/Acura's clearcoat finish on their wheels had gone in the toilet over the last 5-10 years. You're just as well off going with a quality aftermarket wheel IMO.

Lol. One Volk wheel will probably cost more than he was gonna pay for all 4 of those OEM wheels.

I've also seen plenty of high dollar forged wheels damaged by potholes and road debris. Sure, they might be a little less prone to damage but when damage happens the cost of repair or replacement is tremendously more.
