What's the difference between Facelift CDX and Elite alloys....is it just the size or do they look different.

Mick

So looking at all the styles and it seems 7 spoke (if that's the right term) CDX and 5 spoke Elite up to 2002.
Can I fit the Elite alloys which are 17" in place of my CD alloys 16" without worrying too much about the larger size in respect to the speedo/mpg reading etc......And what size tyres are fitted to the 17" Elites.

Cheers
Mick

Yes they're a straight swap. Tyre size on a 17" wheel as standard is 235x45x17.
