Hey,
Not sure if or how hard this is be but i was wondering.....

I know the 98-01 Accord comes in V6 and has 5x114.3 lug pattern

I have a 98-01 Accord 4 cyl. with 4x114.3 lug pattern

I would love to convert my 4 lug 114.3 to a 5 lug 114.3 because of some wheels that i have..

Is there an adapter that will make this easy or can i just purchase parts to convert this myself.

If anyone could help I would appreciate it - please explain in detail - Thanks in advance! :goodjob:

i think you're suppose to take the spindle and all thats assembled with it to do the 5x114.3 conversion..i would say that its pretty bolt on w/ that car, being its the same car, just diff bolt pattern and engine

I checked on the adapters and they sell them over sea's but not safe - i was told..
Def. would be looking at going the spendle route

Emm.. - I just have what every came stock on a 98 lx honda accord sedan. If thats what your looking for then i'll def. sell it when i get this converted.

Anyone know someone who has converted there honda accord from 4 lug to 5 lug?

Im not sure if swapping to V6 spindles will work cause i think the axle splines are different

Yeah, I did a little more research and i think i'll just chill on this project.

Seems like its gonna be too much stuff to just make it 5x114.3

thanks for all the help guys..

you can do it, its not that bad everything bolts up, axles also... the only thing is if you use the 5 lug off of a prelude, you have to get rear suspension for prelude also...

so, using the spindles back out form a 5 lug accord, you can do a successful 5 lug swap on a 4 lug accord?
