So I've done some minor searching, forgive me cause it's 4am and I'm slightly buzzed. And I haven't really found any info. I was looking for, can anyone tell me what the wheel spec's are for a '93 Prelude? I've alway's been a Civic/Integra guy and I know most Honda's are all the same. Is it 4x100 or 4x114.3?

Also what are some common problems in used Preludes that I should lookout for other than the basics, such as maintainance part's and whatnot. My dad picked up a '93 lude, base model 5speed, so I wanna know what I should get done before I start working on it. And also what are some good local/SoCal shop's I can go to for part's cause PWJDM, InlineFour, JHP don't really carry much BB4 part's.




Here's some pic's of my hatch incase anyone was curious, hopefully it'll be done to my liking by late winter, and onto my lude. Please someone give me some tip's/advice.

 

Oh and anyone wanting to know why I want to know the wheel's spec's is because my friend has a set of 16x7 4x100 5Zigen Div.3's that he's willing to sell to me for dirt cheap and they're in mint *** condition.

 

the 16's wont ft........4th gen. ludes are 4x114.3

 

yup, they wont fit. 4th gens= 4x114 5th gens= 5x114

 

Oh and your stock offset is +55. Welcome to the Prelude world.

 

god... I hate such a high fwd offset... makes aggresive wheels hard to fit

but if you want them that bad they do make 4x4.5(haha standard) to 4x100 adapters

Adapters?

 

Nice EG, man. Welcome to the dark side of Honda . . .

 

aren't itr wheels 5-lug? 4g ludes are 4-lug.

 

in 96-97 the itr was 4 lug 114.3. they are the white 8 spoke C8 look alikes.

 

Im not positive about the 97, but I know for a fact 96 ITR's are 4x114. But the man says 97, so hes right Im guessing.

Oh my bad let me clarify what I said, I might to say I was gonna get the usdm '96-97 spec ITR wheel's, they're 4x114.3, they look really similar to the Honda Civic HX wheel's or the Rota/Mugen C8/MF8's.

Thanks for all the help guy's I'll post up pic's after it get's done with the paintjob.

 

Well . . .

Civic, Integra, S2000, NSX = Well liked and in the spotlight.
Prelude = Disliked and wrongfully shunned . . .

 

the prelude is one of honda's greatest, their flagship for years. why it never sold well, i'll never understand. people are stupid i guess. 4th gens, especially, will always have a spot in my heart. every time i drive one, i want one.

No way the Prelude was like my favorite Honda growing up and it's been quite a few year's since I was in junior high school. And once I first saw the JUN Prelude in action I was like damn I want one just like that... Plus team AM7's Prelude is ******* sick with it...
