man.. you need to change to a whole entire suspension or change your swing arms that are 4 lug compatible. 4g are 4 lug and 5th gen are 5 lug. Whooops!!!
cause I don't want to spend mad cash on new rims, and i like the thought of "inheriting" other honda rims, and 16 inch rims are just right for a car with no body kit, just a light drop
just so ya know the only rims that fit our car are the accord 94-97 I think. Bolt pattern is 4x113. most other hondas are 4x100, or 5 lug. sorry no can do.
but for cheap money you may find some used after market16's on ebay or something
Ya its not worth the time of money, if you were wanting to do it to save money, youd actually be spending more money to do the conversion than to buy some 18 inch rims

is it a simple swap? or do I need some spacer or modification...
and a pic of what it would look like would be SUUper
I did a search, and I am thinking about doing the same thing, cept I want Base Rims. I know most of you say it isn't worth it but, it is to me. The question is what exactly do I need to get? and yea pics would be helpful...
it costs a lot and is unwise to try to convert a 4th gen to a 5 lug patern....and then you wanna get stock rims which would cost some money from honda to slap on your allready stock wheels? ????

yea I am checking now, at hondaautomparts.... its not that bad...
and i won a set of Velox vx8's but the guy at e-bay cancelled b/c he wanted more money...
FRONT:
Complete bearing and hub assymbly: 200$ both sides
Rotors: 200$ both sides
REAR:
Complete bearing and hub assymbly: 200$ both sides
Rotors: 200$ both sides.
It may work with your existing front knuckle assembly and the rear. If not.. then all the knuckles front and back with complete components for the swap is about... $1500.
So if you are lucky.... only $800.
If not, and need to swap all knuckles.... $2300.
Might as well get yourself some 16" SSRs for under that price... and sell your SH rims.
