Default aluminum alloys from a 93 V-tec

I have a 1996 accord and was wondering if a set of alloys wheels from a 1993
Prelude V-tech would fit?

Don't know - do a search on google - or go to discounttire.com or something like that ...it also depends on which gen prelude you're talking about...4th gens have a 4x114.3 bolt pattern....i know some of the older hatchs(civic) like '93...has a 4x100 bolt pattern....oh, and it's vtec, not v-tech

5th gen accords share 4 x 114.3mm bolt pattern with 4th gen ludes..so yes it will work....

Yes, they will fit perfectly fine.

Just so you know, there are no VTEC Prelude wheels. They are the same as the Si wheels.

Actually yes there are different wheels for the different models. My stock si had the 7 straight spokes which all 4 wheels were the same, but the vtec models had a directional 9 spoke swept wheel, 2 right and 2 left. Thats what I have on my car now, so seeing as I have both sets of wheels I think its true, and the s model just had steelies with hubcaps. There was also a different wheel on the se model but I can't remember off the top of my head what those wheels look like.

Actually, both the si and vtec models had the same rims. The seven spoke rims only came on th 92-93 preludes, the saw blades came on the 94-96 ludes. Excluding of course, the prelude s(which had no rims).

Wrong. The wheels you are talking about are the 94-96 Si and VTEC wheels.

There were only three types of wheels offered on the Prelude. The 7 spoke (92-93 Si and VTEC), the directional (94-96 Si and VTEC), and the 5 spoke Prelude SE wheels with body colored trim on the spokes. (95 SE...which was an Si model with a few upgrades. H23 engine though)
