I don't think they would fit because they are too wide and don't have the right offset. In other words, they would stick out of the wheel wells.

The A-Spec rims from 04 are Nakayama Vadors. It is cheaper than buying them from Acura..

18X8.5 5-114.3 45 offset..

Should be fine..

45 offset + 8.5" That'll be sticking out beyond the fenders. No chance they'll fit.

I didn't know there was a TSX A-spec. Either way, the bolt pattern will be the same, and depending on the offset a 17x7.5 rim would fit. The regular TSX wheels will most definitely fit without a problem and actually look great on a 2nd Gen TL.
