Default 4x100 to 4x114.3 conversion

hey i was wondering what can i do to get a 4x114.3 bolt pattern witout swappin out my whole suspension. can i just grab a 4th gen. lude hub and slap it on? would it be a direct bolt on?

Why do you need to convert to 4x114.3? There are plenty of wheels available in 4x100, it's a very common bolt pattern.

I think you'd have better luck finding wheels for 4x100 than 114.3 Pointless conversion, but whatever floats your boat.

because he's asking how to do a worthless mod. wouldn't you want someone to inform you if you were about to make a decision that would be a waste of money? or do you just want to blindly follow directions?

I think that someone should just tell him. He's not asking if you think he should do it or not, he's asking how.

well the reason y i wanna do this conversion is cuz i wanna get the 96' jdm itr rims which r 4 lug and 4x114.3. i know its juss a waste of money but hey we r young and we dont need to worry bout money rite now. plus i havent seen any1 around my area (san jose, fremont, or milpitas) wit these rims. i kinda wanna juss be a one of a kind. i would spend the money on engine mods. but im juss sick of the cops rite now and i wanna stay stock for a while till i think its time to go faster.

No. The suspensions are entirely different. Even the different 4 lug hubs need trailing arm swaps to fit... and you're not going to make a Prelude rear trailing arm fit your Integra.

The front... maybe, but the Prelude is based on the Accord platform, not the Civic platform. The suspensions do not use the same geometry.

If you worked out a custom solution your aftermarket suspension wouldn't fit. And it won't fit with a 5 lug swap either, the shocks mount differently. Plus you could forget about ever getting front or rear sway bars, because it would involve more than just lug swaps.
