im not toally sure but i guess i'll start this topic off. "five live conversions" are sweet.. you could start buy just finding like a salvaged crv and attempt to pull off the hubs and brakes. you could basicly use components from any 5 lug application from any honda or acura. this is a question that you could basicly figure out if you had a manual.

Find a wrecked V6 model Accord, preferably from the same gen. They are all 5-lugs, I think. If not, I know all 98-up V6 EX trim levels have 5-lugs.

Changing from four lugs to five adds 20 percent more holding power.

I think that's how it goes.

Plus you will have more variety of rims to look at.

Have you thought about wheel adapters?
They sell these conversion hubs that change your fours into fives.
