I cross posted this in the wheel forum but I figured you guys might be able to help too.

Hi. New to the forums.
I just got a 92 Civic DX Hatch. It's very very stock, which is mostly OK as I just use it as a daily driver and don't race. Like everything a few upgrades would be nice and I intend to do them. One of the things I don't like is the wheels. They're the stock 13s that came with it and they have seen many better days. However, I also happen to have set of 15" OZ Racing Wheels (the Hydra style I think). They came off of an otherwise POS 90 Accord we picked up a couple of years ago.

The problem is the bolt patterns don't match up. What is involved in converting my 4x100 Civic to fit the 4x114.3 wheels? Does anyone know about how much the parts would cost? What size tires would I need to have on the rims? They've currently got 195/60 Yokohamas mounted on them. Will that clear the wells on the civic or do I need to go smaller? Am I just going to be better off making a trade with someone for rims that will fit?

thanks for any help.

Just sell them... not worth the money or the danger of using an adapter. Some people would just say to bring it to a shop and have them drill new holes which i think is stupid

You could convert your DX to a 4x114.3 lug pattern. You'll need to swap to 4x114.3 prelude hubs. Or you could buy a jdm 4x114.3 ITR conversion.

Sell em and get ones that fit.
Or go though with the conversion if you really like the wheels which just means more of YOUR time and more of YOUR money and over all, might end up coming out to cost more then just gettign a new set of wheels.
