Anybody know how to get a 13x8 wheel on a ITR 5 lug set up.
Going to drag race . Hoping you all had some insight on how I can get them to work.
Weather it be changing the disc or modifying the bracket or even fitting a gsr caliper. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

I have noticed that the newer five lug civics have a fairly small rotor/caliper setup. I always wanted to try and put a set on for this exact reason.

It's drag racing; you don't need brakes. Save weight and get a parachute instead

I don't know much about drag racing so I can't offer any real advice.

Swap over to a GSR spindle to fit a typical 4 lug 13x8. Then when your done at the track and slicks swap back to your 5 lug spindle.

So I take it that you don't have an ITR, but you upgraded a normal 'Teg/hatchcrap to a 5-lug ITR setup?
Or am I missing something?

I have done it to mine. There are multiple ways of doing this. You can buy the front brake kit from keizen speed and it will clear or you can go the cheap route like me I have gsr knuckles gsr calipers re drilled gsr rotors so they are 5 lug and 5 lug hubs.

Nothing bitter old man about building a car correctly rather than putting needless bling parts on it that make your final quest that much more difficult.
Duh.

Then there is no "easy" way to do it (aka something done in the parking lot in 15 minutes before/after a drag race). Have to get brakes that'll fit under a 13" wheel, which would be something on the lines of an OEM GSR setup. He'll save weight that way, as well.
Just convert it over or run a 15" drag wheel.

My advice would be to sell the OEM 5 lug setup and pick up full 4 lug Integra stuff. You will have at least $400 in your pocket and the car will be lighter.

OP is a perfect example of going for the 5-lug bling when what he really needed was a set of good pads with 4-lug brakes because the car was intended to be a drag car all along. No one buys 13x8's with drag tires just for the heck of it.
