    If the wheels are 4x114, you will need to convert from 4x100 to 4x114.
    Also look at the offset. higher offset the wheel will be closer to suspension/brakes components and low offset will stick out.

    The wheels are 4x100 but they dont clear the honda hub thing in the center. The hole in the middle is to small.

    kinda sucks to be hub-centric doesnt it? Lug-centricity FTW!

    That is what I was thinking... I had a shop tell me they could do it so I might try it.

    You might be able to get away with running extended lugs and spacers if machining doesn't cut it

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
