    I am in need of another set of wheels for my RR6 and wondered whether RR5 wheels are a straight swap.
    I am sure one of you knowledgable fellers must have the answer...

    Should do as the 04-07 blades are the same.

    Yes they should do but I would give your local Honda dealer a call first just to make sure

    o.k. cheers for that.
    Looks like they are the same, I will check with a dealer though.

    Front disc rotors are larger diameter on the '06 than the '05, thats the only difference I'm aware of.

    Yes, they are a direct replacement. Out of curiosity, whats a set of standard wheels worth? I've my standard ones lying in the garage and wondered what they were worth (they aren't for sale though)

    My opinion (for what its worth, and that's not a lot!) as to the value, a clean pair would be worth 400 but a well used pair half that.
