Default Wheel fitment question

Hey guys , just tried my jeep today in snow for the first time.. Got some grip issues when braking with my tires. Rear are good but the front are worn down pretty bad. I got a set of acura wheels with winter tire that I am not using. I am wondering if acura wheels have the same bolt pattern. I am guessing not but might as well ask. If it don't fit I plan to go looking at a junyard for some wheels off a jeep ( I believe I got car tires on mine). Any suggestion what to look for ?

For tires I would look for an All Terrain tire. Make sure you get 4 of them and they must be the same size. A 235/75/15 would be a good size if you don't have any lift.

The Acura wheel/tires wont work.

You might get lucky at the JY or a local service station/tire shop. Ask around for decent used tires in 235/75/R15 or maybe 16 if you have 16" wheels. Looking on your tires will tell you the size.
