any difference in these Elite wheels?

Any difference between any year elite rear wheels?

Can say 01 elite rear wheels fit on an 87 and vice versa?

Are they identical..thx

Greetings:

Wheels on '85 Aeros through 2001 Elites interchange freely. All are 1.85 x 10 tube-type. Only the Spree-based Elite "E" wheels at 1.5 x 10 differ to fit the smaller tires.
Not sure about "E" brake diameter, but Aero through present-day Met wheels fit with 95mm drums.
Met wheels are better for 90/90 or larger tires and can run tubeless on all '85-'01 2-strokes.

Important note: these are rear wheel specs.

The E drum diameter is smaller.

I was pretty sure the Spree and "E" drums were smaller, but didn't have the dimension. 80mm would be my guess.

Note that the Front wheel drum grew from 80 to 95mm in 1994. Fortunately the larger panel is a straight bolt-on swap for the older models. Ditto for the wider, tubeless Metropolitan front rims.

Yes - SB50 (EliteE) and Spree are 80mm drums in the rear.
