Can I use my 2006 RSX-S wheels on 2016+ ILX?

As the title asks. Looking at the tire specification (215/45R17) I think so, and as far as I can tell all Honda and Acura sedands are five bolt, but I don't know much about wheels. I've seen mention of varying offsets (is that if the wheel is wider/narrower than stock?).

Thanks!

Oh, and one more thing. I see that the A-spec has 18" wheels, but it doesn't look like the brakes are actually any larger, so I assume 17" wheels will clear them?

the bolt pattern matches...5x114.3
the RSX wheels will be .5 narrower at 6.5 versus 7 inches wide.
I think you can use the 215ILX tire on the RSX wheels.

Thanks!

Now that I have you here, you wouldn't know anything about TMPS would you? Can I just do without it? Do I need to drill holes and get sensors or anything like that?

in my 2006 TL, i can get away without using TPMS...an annoying warning will pop up on dash, but i can simply dismiss it.
with the newer cars, i believe without TPMS, it also disables VSA. not too sure.
