5 lug swap - Honda Prelude Forum

starscream · 10-10-2002, 09:30 PM

Just curious. Has anyone ever done a 5 lug swap/conversion on a 4g? I would imagine it wouldnt be that hard.... how similar is the suspension on a 4th and 5th gen?

The rear suspension is fairly similar. I know that on a base you can use 4th Gen shocks...as for the front, I have no clue.

why do you care mr 240? i dont know of anyone who has done it because it is not worth the money it would cost to try to do with no real useful advantage.

I suppose having 5 lugs as opposed to 4 on a FWD car isnt as advantageous as on a RWD car, but still.... more wheel choices, uniqueness, SOMETHING technical to do that not many people, if any have done.

I think 5g SH wheels on a 4g would look hot.

If i was to go with stock rims I would put some S2000 rims on there...i dont know the lug pattern though.

about how much would it cost to do this conversion?

This would be sweet ... then we could fit SW388's on our 4th gens...

How about the ITR suspension? Just a thought.
