Thinking about doing a 5-lug conversion
I have noticed a set of wheels that i think would look great on my Teg, but they are only available in 5-lug.
What would be involved to do a conversion on my 94 GSR?
Anyone have a $$$ figure that I can use for reference?

Well, a typical price for a 5 lug without ITR wheels is anywhere from 1200-1500.
This price includes the entire rear trailing arms, rotors, discs, bearings, calipers and front knuckles.

I want to install the 17 inch BBS factory front wheels from the Zanardi edition NSX (Type S in Japan) on all four corners of my GSR. These are a 5 lug wheel.
These BBS wheels are very light weight, and would represent a show item that no-one else would have. I like the idea of being origional.
Would I really need to replace both rear trailing arms?
Just hubs would be a lot cheaper I suppose, but I would still need 5 lug rotors... Lots of money, probably not worth it.
Thanks for the responses

Its not the most cost effective braking modification, as it runs around $2k...but it is very nice.
You would have to get rid of your current springs/shocks...you can keep the front I believe, but the rear is different due to the LCA's...although you could just keep the regular Integra LCA's I believe.
