should've kept the max but,
you are going to have to sell them. Will not fit with any conversion.
BTW: what kind of rims are they?

Just sell your old wheels and get nice new ones. There's a huge market for 4-lug wheels.

Well...

You can get wheel spacers but they are not reliable (most places will not even deal with them). You can have your wheels custom drilled but in most cases that costs more than buying a new set of wheels ($150+ per rim). I agree with the other posters, just sell them and buy another set. Like Weasel said, the 4-lug market is huge ( thanks to the Civic and Integra ), you should not have a problem even getting the wheels you have again. Now please explain why you went to a slower car.
Thanks,
Cyrus

Re: Rim help!!!

Integra Type-R, the Prelude and V6 Accords (RSX?) have the correct bolt pattern, and maybe the spindles will fit. Still, they all generally use narrower wheels and may have a different offset.
Also, before you go this route, also consider the cost of tire replacement, as it's unlikely that they use the same diameter.

As previously described 4x100mm bolt pattern is very, very popular.

Yeah but new ones are gonna be a lot more expensive difference between new and old ones than the cost of the lug conversion things..
