Question about proper lugs
Hello,
I have a 98 honda civic dx and got myself a set of 14 inch LS Mesh wheels (From what I understand at least... from an integra, not sure what year though.) and was under the impression I needed tapped lugs. I've since been told otherwise, as the guy who I had put my tires on told me they look like tapped seatings but feel like a ball seating. Needless to say I have a set of wrong lugs and lock nuts and would like a way around buying a new set.
I came across these (http://www.pacificcustoms.com/mm5/me...gory_Code=6HWD) adapters that look like they may work. However the descriptions mention a 5-lug wheel? where mine are 4-lug.
My lock lugs are the McGard Regular Cone ones found here (http://www.mcgard.com/Applications/A...1MC%2bkg%3d%3d)
My wheels have this on the inside:
14 x 5 1/2 JJ
off 45
8R3-4550
Thanks in advanced,

Re: Question about proper lugs
Yes, getting spares seems like the way to go.
Have you had experience with these? I don't see why there would be an issue but that's just my thought, someone without much car experience.
Thanks again
