Default Would you pay $1,375 for a brand new Five Lug Conversion?

Just want to know if this price is worth it. All parts are new of course and provided by our dealership. These parts will fit any Integra model year from 94-01. They are the barebone systems that includes the hub assembly, rear trailing arm, front and rear calipers, and wheel bearings. All from an ITR of course. No Rotors, No Pads, just bare bone. You can buy cheap rotors from Autozone.

All of this for $1,375. Question is, is it worth it?

Thanks,

len

I dont think so, personally. Ive seen the entire conversion with wheels go for ~$1500...being new isnt that much of a big deal to me.

That's what I kinda figured. If you find a reliable supplier, you can get the conversions for about a little more with alot more parts.

Thanks for the replies guys.

That's a little steep, put it towards something more beneficial.

its not so much the 5 lug, its the fact that it has bigger and better brakes.

whats so good about 5 lug? so far only thing i c is harder to find rims for 5 lugs for sale. I mean for 1300 im sure there is something way better u can do to ur car then adding another lug. I know i can think of a few.

can't you just take your 4 lug off and drop in a 5 lug (not that easy but I don't think you need to spend $1300). I thought there are less parts you can change to get a five lug to work

-Aoib0t, who is not sure about this.
