Default 2009 Accord EX-L V6 Alloy Rims are different???

Hi, I was told by my dealership and several other dealership parts department that 17" OEM alloy rims for the 09 accord EX-L V6 are different from those of the EX (EX-L) 4 cylinders. Is that true?

My rim is damaged by a parking attendant and I have been looking for a replacement, but the new one is simply too expensive (466+7% tax). I have been thinking about a refinished one, but the person at the shop doesn't go by the trim. So I am really confused.....

Thank you for your attention, and would appreciate your insights!

Yes.

For Accords, V6 models have always had a different style of wheel vs. 4-cylinder models to set them apart.
