    they are very similar, but the front disc is 10mm larger, I thought the calipers were the same but not sure if disc's will go straight on. The wheels are the same though. I'll ask my honda dealer your question...

    I think the rear is the same on both models, the spacers you need is just a 5mm thick washer basically. Should find them on eBay with a search for 5mm calliper spacer

    If its just a 5mm spacer n longer bolt I might be able to source them from work. Cheers for your advise.
