Default 1997 Accord SE Rims to Acura Rims

I would like to install Acura rims on my 1997 Accord SE.

The Acura rims I have are 4 lug but the holes are closer together than the original Accord rims holes are, therefore my question is "Is there a way for me to change the Lugs in my hub assembly to use these rims"?
Any help on how I could go about this conversion would be cool.

Thanks

i ran into the same problem once...but if the acura rims are 4 lug they should fit on to your honda....i dont see why they wouldn't be the same unless obviuosly if they were the new 5 lug style...

but the only thing i can think of is getting a converter for the lug nuts...but still they should fit....???!!!

Acura Integra rims 4-lug rims had the same bolt pattern as 4th gen and older Accords. 5th gen and up high a larger 4-lug pattern.

ummmm

4th Gen accords have 4x114.3 just like 5th gen...and not all acura 4 lugs will fit accords...integras have 4x100, 5x114.3...CLs had 4x114.3 and 5x114.3

Phat has some 96 JDM ItR wheels 4x114.3...facts are facts...if the holes are closer together...they arent gonna fit and you need to get another set of wheels...damn

correct, 4th gen, as well as 5th gen accords all had the 4x114.3 bolt pattern, therefore a 4x100(civics, integras, etc) wheel will not fit onto these hubs, without major modification(5 lig conversion, etc)

Does anyone know if I could change my 1997 Accord hub assembly to a Acura Integra hub assembly. With this solution I think I could get the rims on.

Adapters? If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, I wouldn't trust them to get me around the block.
