all intgras EXCEPT type-r have 4x100
i know that up to 2000 all civics were 4x100
after 200 the 4 lugs should still be 4x100

Try actually putting the wheel on instead of just eye balling it.

Only way i can see this not working is two things..

1. upgraded hub/rotor assembly that you dont know you have.

2. the wheels are in fact, not fat fives

this is possible.

my friend has the 4x114 i think from the 96 spec ITR on his EG and when he went to get winter rims/tires installed, it took 3 techs to try on the 4x100 steelies that the manual called for, puzzled, they told him the situation. man what a funny time.

And im sure they were techs employed at Honda. I swear some of those guys are completely clueless when it comes to their job.

14mm is ~1/2". Congrats, you have ITR hubs. Now have fun finding 4x114mm's. BTW, what did the old rims look like? Aftermarket, or 15" 8 spoke?

having a job as a tech at Honda dealership doesn't require that your into the aftermarket honda tuning world. a tech isnt going to know that a 96 jdm itr has a different lug pattern then a usdm civic.

one of the late 90's accord wheels looked similar to the gsr fat fives. And if I'm not mistaken some of the accord 4 lug patterns were 4X114 instead of 4x100.

aftermarket?

its still a Honda lug pattern.

regardless, it still shouldnt take 3 techs to figure out a car doesnt have a stock lug pattern.
