17" instead of 16"

kaissi · 08-24-2007, 09:49 PM

Hello,
As you all know, the 2004 model had many changes on the previous models 2000-2003, major was the wheels jumped from 16" to 17". Now here's the question: If I have the 2002 model which comes with 16" stock, can I put the 17" wheels model of 2004? I'm sure can, but will it affect anything, in other word did Honda enhance the suspension in the 2004 model to support the 17" wheel, or it's just that they put bigger wheels?

Can anyone have a link to the list of changes between the 2004 and previous models. Technical changes not silly ones like glass rear or clock or you know "gadgets".

Thank you,

I was going to go to the 17's so I could find a BBK that would go with them when I autoX, but I changed my mind and sold the 17's.

This did not answer my question. I am not asking for suggestion.
I am asking, did Honda enhance anything to support the 17" or it's the same they just put 17" for better look and size?

The suspension was softened, but had nothing to do with the wheel size.
