Whats the advantages?

Personally, I'm just trying to get the '02 CL/TL Type S 17" Premium Alloys on my 5th gen Accord. I think that'll just be P-I-M-P. :thumbup: :drool:

im lookign to do a 5 lug conversion so i can choose from a bigger selection of wheels. i guess finding the right parts for this will be difficult.

it will also be expensive...think.....its x4 whatever the cost for one wheel. It it worth it? From what i've seen, alot of the popular brands come in both 4 and 5 lug to appeal to a bigger audience. Is it true that the mainstream is 5 lug?

well my buddy owns a body shop, and he had a v6 there that was no longer being used. and i thought that the 5th gen v6's had 5 lug, so he said i could have everything i needed for free. but i guess that wont happen.

i heard you could use the parts off the first gen honda oddysseys?
