Default Stock Gearing question

HI all, I noticed that from touring up, the 05's come with 18" wheels, while the base/enthusiast comes with 17" wheels.

Is the gearing the same between enthusiast and touring models even though the stock wheel size is different (for MT cars)?

I tried searching but couldnt' find the answer.

Thanks.

The same.

The tires are sized in a taller size to compensate for the smaller wheel.

Wheel diameter does not alter final gear ratio.
