I'm sure they are 114.3, it's probably a typo. Besides...

115 = 4.528"
114.3 = 4.500"

You'll never see that .7mm (.028") difference anyway. Again, I'm sure it's just a typo. You'll be fine

Also...
Just in case you weren't aware... the 114.3 number identifies the diameter the center of the wheel studs are on in Metric (sometimes know as a Bolt Circle Diameter). Meaning, if you have look at a four lug Accord, say a 95 4cyl., and you measure from the center of one wheel stud to the center of the other thats directly 180* on the other side of the hub it'll measure 4.5" or 114.3mm.

So knowing this, apply it to the above. You would take that .028" difference in diameter from above and divide it by 2 to see how far off the center of each hole in the rim would be (.028/2 = .014"). So each hole in the rim would be off by .014", you'll never see that.

I hope that made sense
