Welcome!
Give it a go with the Zeroics, the worst thing that could happen would be a wipe (and that is the DPS's fault anyway. :P ), if it feels to rough right now you can always wait until you feel more confident.

PvP pieces are fine, some are even BiS.

I wonder if I should mention that in my guide, and where. Gearing I guess? I will put it in with the next bundle of updates I have planned.

i started tanking them with around 353-354 on my druid so you should be fine....i'd definitely make the changes stated above. If you haven't tanked ZG/ZA yet i'd go read up on em alittle. some of the pulls can hurt if you don't know which to kill first or CC.
i know there's a "How to do a timed run" for ZA in the new guides section. You won't be trying to do the timed run but the info in there is actually worth reading.

Everything should be reforged to dodge rating in the following order:
mastery > crit > expertise till cap > hit till cap > haste.
The way you say this makes it a bit confusing. It's as if mastery takes prio in getting reforged, while it is the
opposite
. You know that ofc, but other people might interpret that the wrong way.
For green stats, the bear prio looks like this:
dodge > mastery > expertise > crit > hit > haste
Also, the jp trinket isn't very good, fluid death is a better option with the hit reforged to dodge.
Fluid Death is a JP trinket as well nowadays ;-)

thank you for all your tips! i'll start doing all the things you said.. one thing that i don't get it is: where can i see my cap? ex. for haste,hit,exp etc and by "till cap" you mean to reforge it as high as possible? so the hit cap will be 0 or something?
prio will be to get pve waist and wrist that's why im going to zalandari for the ilvl and after that helm weapon(probably witch hunter's)after i get some good ilvl gears i'll meta gem the ones that i found in Thror's guide.
about the trinket, i need 1 inst more to go to get the death's fluid and from the vp vendor, an epic relic that i found!
about zalandari, i went there and we killed 2 bosses but the shammy and rogue were about 9k dps each .. so we got wiped and everyone left the group ;p
