Wheel question :)

Hey i checked out the stickies but just to make sure, did the SE wheel sizes change at all between the 5 and 5.5 gen models? or all SE wheels from 2000-2003 the same size? Thanks!

there were 16's (5 spoke) for the 2000 se and the 17's (6 spoke) were an option i believe, after that they were all 17's for the se i think. all the 5.5 gen se's all have 17's.

The offset on the stock 5.5 gen 17's did not drop. I'm not exactly sure but it's in the 43 - 45 range.

panda...the offset stayed the same...well i can't say 100% sure...but if they did change...its prob only 2mm's......a 10mm offset change is quite significant...
