....is this 42700SZNA02/ ALY71795U10?




...the one I'll keep; the true 42700SZNA11/ ALY71795U30


So, I am a new Acura owner with a 2012 MDX Tech purchase a few weeks back. Looking to add a little bit of individuality, I decided to go plus one sizing with the ZDX 19" wheels, but have run into a problem, as Acura only lists two part numbers, but seem like there could be three different wheels from the ZDX.


While Acura lists the same part number from 2010 - 2012 (#42700SZNA02), it seems the spec may have changed in 2012 to have a sparkle silver color around the machined blades as opposed to just polished aluminum all over. Can any of you "Z" owners confirm?


I know they changed to a darker charcoal accent in 2013 (#42700SZNA11/ ALY71795U30), but trying to figure out if the lighter wheel in my pic is a faded 2013 or ???


BTW, I will go with the darker, so mainly just trying to identify the lighter; they may be for sale soon...




Thanks in advance!

2012 ZDX; can anyone provide a pic of 2010 or 2011? They have the same part number, but trying to avoid a costly mistake in ordering....let me know. thx


....so, found a dealer not too far that had a 2012 ZDX on the lot and looks like I confirmed there is a lighter silver metallic wheel. Can someone confirm on the 2010 or 2011 ZDX; were those solid aluminum with no contrasting paint/ powder coat?

i know only two types of such wheel design, pre-2013 and 2013 (slightly darker)

maybe I saw a chrome version once but can't remember excatly

...yeah, I forgot about that. Not sure if those are OEM, but those are easy enough to distinguish in pictures. If it turns out there really are just two versions, that will hopefully simplify...

....great! Even in L.A., the closest dealer to me with a 2010 right now is 20+ miles away. I realize that on a site like this, a wheel upgrade is one of the first things people might do, but glad you were able to share; this is extremely helpful. In the end, it really does appear that the place that sold them had them mislabeled, which is not surprising, since from a fitment perspective, there is no difference in all the years 2010-2013...

glad to help, good luck!
Now I'm off to see about switching out my DRLs....it bugs me they're warm white, not bright (cool) white. Hopefully they will be soon!
