Front Wheel bearing sizes?
Just been through a bit of a headache ordering '82 Accord front wheel bearings (for my 4x100 converted '79) with suppliers not providing answers then not getting the right parts... though I did get them eventually.

They wanted to supply me with wheel bearings that would also supposedly fit '79-'87 Prelude (I believe Prelude changed their W.bearing ID for '81 & again for '84?Si models) with a 35mm Inner bore diameter !

Just curious to know if this usage would ever have existed or if their catalog is as inaccurate as I suspect.
They seemed to think it might vary if the car had been fitted factory with rear discs (never officially offered here!)
Far as I knew Honda had stitched to 36mm ID for the second generation, exempting the 38mm SE-i as noted in the FAQ hub/axle thread.

I posted a chart of that information somewhere in the 2g FAQ. The parts stores here always ask if I have the 1.8, which was never offered here. It gets annoying.

Yes I accounted for the 36 & 38mm bearing inner diameters... but 35mm ?

35mm makes no sense. Parts store is probably wrong.
