I don't know about the 501Xwe but I thought the new rims were all the same (smaller) size. The reason the rims were made slightly smaller (not quite 1 mm!) is because they were oversized and illegal at IFMAR races.
If your 501X WE came with larger front wheels then I'm surprised by that - the new wheels are much better - they have a much tighter hex to prevent stripping out
