JUSt GOT A REALLY GOOD DEAL ON A BEAUTIFUL SET OF aoocrd five spoke wheels,the four bolt ones,and the stupid pattern is different. any suggestions on other hubs that will fit our wheel bearings? it's the one just a little bigger then the 4x100 the other problem would be with the back drums,maby another accord with rear drums that fill fit on our car? I love these wheels they are the 15x6 ones too. anybody know of a wheel specialist that can redrill these as dual pattern? and install seats of course. ?

the bolt patteren on those are 4x114 for the 4th gen and up. a mechine shop may be able to redrill them for you not sure of any hub swap that would work

i dont think anyone has changed the lug patern in the front and back but they have done it on the back the legend rear disks fit with some mods and the lug patern is 4x114

[lostforawhile]

is this the right adaptor? the one exactly opposite this one says it adapts 4x100 wheels to 90 and up accords. in other words this one in reverse. also will the one inch spacing make that much difference? http://www.ezaccessory.com/Wheel_Adapter_4_Lug_100_To_4_Lug_4_5_p/4100-4450.htm

Might measure the clearance from your tire to the fenderwell with the tires all the way to one side. If the rim is wider & the gap for that adapter might make a differance, especially on the turning radius.

damn u reallllllllllly need a good camera

[shepherd79]

yeah that is the right adapter, but you have to remember, as soon as you bolt that adapter on. your wheels will stick out past fenders. it would look stupid.

[MessyHonda]

cool....your rims look like fat fives....me like:thumbup:

[ICEMAN707]

Just try selling the wheels for more than what you paid for and get ones that actually fit, cus you're gonna spend a shitload of money trying to get those to fit. Those wheels are really not that importantly nice to be worth the trouble. They are just stock 5th gen accord ex OEM, a dime a dozen.

could always roll them with a baseball bat :P

[lostforawhile]

see If I changed everything over to fit then I also have a lot more wheel options in the future then I do now. those adaptors change the backspacing by one inch,I need to measure the backspacing on both wheels and see if they will stick out or not. they may be stock fifth generation wheels but they sure would look nice on this car.

[ICEMAN707]

You already have alot of wheel options. 4x100 is more common than 4x114.3. Alot of 4cyl cars use 4x100. The turbo mini cooper s wheels for example, and those are really nice. Or the Nissan Sentra Spec-V wheels. Not sure, but I think Ford Focus ZX3 wheels are 4x100 and are nice too (99-00 Civic Si wannabe wheels). Or just get GSR fat fives, 99-00 Si wheels...you can never go wrong with those.

I wonder how feasable it would be to have a wheel specialist drill these whees to dual pattern? it's pretty easy to press in new seats. If I could find another set of honda wheels that looked just like these I would use them,I just really like the way they look on this car,they also would fill the wheel wells well. It's hard to explain,I know what the car will look like finished so I know they will look good.

[2oodoor]

hard to let go aint it,,there will be more, I would sell them unless you really have nothing in them , drilling them is risky biz..

[lostforawhile]

well he will tak them back I just really liked the fit and style of these wheels. they can't be drilled because of the way the casting is made

[BITESIZE]

My 4 x 100 motegis don't fit my 98 accord. I was going to get adapters, I said fuck it. I'm buying wheels for the 98. The adapters just aren't safe. Buy some wheels that fit up right.

[mkymonkey]

so how much did you pay for these guys? it doesnt really seem like a good deal if you have to do so much work to get them on. i would just pay to get some other wheels and sell those on ebay or craigslist

[lostforawhile]

well they were 200 with brand new tires,he said he will give me my money back so I'm not going to worry about it anymore.

[Cheeseburger]

those look clean tim
