HELLO MY FRIENDS, AS USUAL AND BTW, MY BF IS GETTING NEW RIMS FOR HIS 99 ACCORD 4CYL...BUT SINCE ACCORD 4CYL MODELS ONLY HAS 4 WHEEL LOCKS, HOW CAN THOSE RIMS, WHICH HAVE 5 WHEEL LOCKS, CAN BE FIT?? I AM REALLY CONFUSED, CUZ AT TIRERACK.COM, I WAS USING THE WHEEL SELECTER TO SELECT THE WHEELS FOR HIM, SO THE RIMS THAT THEY SUGGESTED MUST BE FIT RIGHT?? NEED UR OPIONS MY FRIENDS~~

 

Some wheels have both four and five lug patterns. Nice pic.

 

BUT CAN THIS WHEEL BE FIT THOUGH?

 

i had 17" 5 lug wheels on my 4th generation. when i sold the car, a friend of mine wanted them for his 1999 accord 4cyl...even though there were 2 different patterns, they did not fit. i don't
think it's doable,,,he will need wheels for 4 lug cars, unless he has an accord v6,,,

 

Hey sweet heart,

Looks like you have some problems with your caps lock. For information of how to disable it, click here http://www.wap.org/info/techstuff/disablecapslock.html

 

That is only a pic companies make four lug and five lug pattterns if your talking about taking a four lug and trying to put it on a five lug pattern hub it's not possible

 

rims are basically manufactured in 2 different bolt numbers..4 and 5(unless ur looking for rims that will fit SUVs and trucks)..

for example, they make my 5Ziggen GT-8s in 4 lug patterns and 5 lug patterns. not all rims come this way. there are more applications available for Accords than u can imagine.

now, if u find the 4 lug rims, must think of the off-set issue then. what's offset? well, that's telling u how much the rims will stick out from the hub. if u get wrong offset rims, ouch..that's not good.
hope this helps.

 

SO WHAT U R SAYING IS THE PIC THAT I POSTED MAY HAVE 4 LUG PATTERNS?? SINCE TIRE RACK HAS THE WHEEL SELECTER FEATURE, THE OFFSET MUST BE RIGHT RIGHT?? AND U R ALSO SAYING THAT RIMS HAS 4 AND 5 BOLT NUMBERS, CUZ I KNOW SOME OF THE RIMS CAN FIT 4 LUG AND 5 LUG, IS THIS WHAT U MEAN?? OR U MEANT EACH RIMS MAKE 4 LUG AND 5 LUG EACH?? BTW, THANKS FOR THE REPLY, THAT'S REALLY HELPFUL~

 

yeah, the rim u posted a picture of may or may not come with 4 lug patterns that will fit ur bf's accord.
make sure u call tirerack and ask them if the rims will fit in ur bf's accord. in that case, in a very unlikely event that the rims won't fit, u can send them back and claim for ur losses..
i was saying that each rim has different bolt patterns. u can't bolt the exact same wheel onto a 4 lug hub if the rim's made for a 5 lug hub. now, with 4 lug patterns, there are rims with 8 holes on them. that is to accomodate different bolt patterns(maximas bolt patterns are 5x114). these rims will not bolt onto 5 lug hubs but they ARE interchangable between 2 different 4 lug hubs(boy, we're really getting confused now..)

does that help?

 

YES,THANK YOU MY FRIEND~~

 

wait a minute..i didn't know Stillen already came out with a y-pipe for 2K2s?

 

isnt there an adapter u can buy to change the bolt pattern??? from a 4-lug to a 5-lug

 

how much?? my brother planning to get one
