Default my first car eg

so pretty much im probably getting a civi 95' eg

and its got 4 lugs rollin' on hubs.

and i was thinking about putting on some buddy club P1's

i was just wondering what the big differences between the 4 lug and the 5?

not like variety wise.

oh and i was also wondering about some good places online that do free shipping and free install tires to rims?
-i really would like to get a buddy club wheel set or a integra wheetset online?
just hook me up with some nice websites.


thanks

first off, good choice for a car.

secondly, searching will help you find a LOT more information that a few peope posting replys.

just to start you off, most wheel/tire places that offer the wheel tires packages dont really mess with buddy club wheels, but more of the cheaper lines of wheels that will yield them greater profits.

http://www.wheelsnext.com
http://www.tirerack.com
http://www.wheelmax.com

its been a while since ive been to those sites so hopefully they are still up

good luck

i dont follow you with the 4 lug 5 lug thing
but the only wheels that are going to fit on your car have to be 4x100
as for the b,h or k seiries thats up to you do some searching and find out what you like and what you'll have money for
