I think you would regret it, you'll be going from the lightest OEM Acura TL wheel to what is likely a very heavy SUV wheel. The ride will suffer and so will your performance, besides chrome just isn't a nice look IMO it's kind of tacky.

The 20" ZDX wheels look great on the 4G TL. I'd do it but the only thing holding me back is the weight issue and rougher ride. Going up 1 inch in rim size is going to impact the ride. Also as said above, the diamond cut wheels are the lightest wheels acura sells, the ZDX wheels are a bit heavier leading to decreased MPG and performance too.

The ZDXers look amazing, but yes there will be a performance trade off. It really comes down to what you prioritize and your driving style.

A set of heavy wheels will noticeably slow down the car, and worsen throttle response.

IMHO, there is no reason to get ZDX 20" rims. Those Diamond cuts are mint. Bigger rims will be heavier. You want the lightest tire/rim combo on your car.
