Will my wheels fit my new 4G?

[maxsideburn]

I'm sure this has been answered before, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Are the patterns the same for a 90 Accord as they are for an 87 Accord? I have some aftermarket wheels with many bolt holes, so even if they don't fit the same as on my current 3G do you think it's possible/probable that they will fit using some of the other holes?

yes

[frantik]

3gees are 4x100 and 4gees are 4x114 but those after market wheels look like they have both bolt patterns on it

[mkymonkey]

are you sure 4g's are 4x114? i got some steelies from a 4g in my yard and they fit fine.

[frantik]

pretty sure.. i always complain that 4gees wheels dont fit 3gees

[mkymonkey]

ok nevermind...just looked them up on tirerack and youre right....but why did the wheels fit from that 4g in my yard? hmm

thats a good question lol.. did they have two sets of bolt patterns?

[mkymonkey]

no...just straight honda steelies....maybe the guy changed the hubs? cuz the car was really riced out...till he got in an accident i guess lol cuz it WAS totaled...everything but the rims

[2drSE-i]

i cant see changing the hubs...maybe hes just a dumbass and told you the wrong year, or maybe your a dumbass :D

LOL

[mkymonkey]

well i guess i didnt mean the hubs lol..i meant to say the bolt pattern...cuz i do know for a fact that it is a freaking 4g...it looks like one and i know how to read vins
i would give you the vin if you wanted to do a search but...i already junked it

[maxsideburn]

hmm, sure hope my wheels will still fit ;)

[A18A]

yeah it sucks how the 4g wheels dont fit a 3gee :( i want my dads oem wheels on my car :(

[mkymonkey]

hmm, sure hope my wheels will still fit ;)


well your aftermarket wheels look like they have more than one bolt pattern. usually that means that they have both 4x100mm and 4x114mm....so they should fit

[reanimator420]

well monkey did your mesh wheels for your car come with a bolt of 4x100?lol so they fit on that year 3g so i think you have 3g hubs

[mkymonkey]

uh...yes they came in 4x100. i think you need to revise your post...i dont understand it lol

[reanimator420]

neither do i nevermindlol

[2drSE-i]

lmao....to change the bolt pattern i do believe you change the hub...it just wouldnt make sense to change the hub off a 4g tho...dont really understand why those steelies fit.

[toastyghost]

are you sure 4g's are 4x114? i got some steelies from a 4g in my yard and they fit fine.
The 4g wheels might fit but they're probably putting an outward pressure on the studs which can cause them to snap. I've heard of people using 5x115 and 5x100 interchangeably but having a wheel fly off on the highway. Not a good idea.

I'm lurking again btw, to all the old-school members :)
