Acura TL rims on 05 rwd Sedan
I know this would be kind of strange... but I really like the look of the stock TL 5-star chrome rims. They apparently have the same bolt pattern as the G35. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could find out if there would be any issues making them work on my car? Caliper clearance/tire pressure sensors? Thank you in advance.

That sucks... per tirerack several aftermarket 17" rims are interchangeable with the G. I wonder how that can be the case if the center bores are different?
BBart the OEM center bore are usually smaller than the center bore on aftermarket rims this is why aftermarket rims offer hubcentric rings to keep the center of gravity stabilized at the hub of the rim this reduces wheel vibrations that come with having aftermarket rims. I totally forgot about the center bore being different.
OEM wheels will always be center bore specific. Aftermarket wheels forged or cast will need to account for the various manufacturer center bores so they don't exclude a certain brand vehicle.
I don't know Acura center bore but Nissan being 66.1, Volks and many other wheel companies center bore to 73.1 and include center bore adapters with their wheels. Some custom built aftermarket wheels will be built center bore specific. HRE and Vellano are 2 I know are built without the need to run center bore adapters. Iforged are custom built but I've seen the center bore adapters inculded for some reason.

OEM wheels are built for the exact fitment, after market usually use 73.1 as pointed out by rookie and adapters are then used to reduce the 73.1 to whatever the car's centerbore is.
The TL ones are 64.1mm. 2mm isn't that much, but it might be enough to stop them from seating properly.
