Putting wheels/rims from 02/03 TL on 99 TL

I'm curious if it's possible to put wheels from the 02/03 TL on the 99 TL. I would really like to have those on my 99. Is it possible, would it mess up the drive axles or dimensions and stuff?

I want to swap the ones in my avatar or profile pic for these:

Nevermind, I actually did some research myself and found out that:

1999-2001 Acura TL tire dimensions are----205/60R16
2002-2003 Acura TL tire dimensions are----205/60R16

So they are the exact same thing but different wheel/rim designs. So I can easily swap them.

But just to note there is a huge difference with the 02 and 03. They are available with a trim titled "Type-S" those models come with newer wheels/rims that are 5 spoke and different design but also different tire dimensions----215/50R17

And the Type-S wheels/rims look like this:


So if you were to get those wheels or rims, you would also need to get new tires.

I got some Gunmetal CL type S wheels for sale bro. The only difference between the CL and TL is the TL's curve out a bit on the lip, the CL's have no lip. Also CL's are 1/2 inch wider
