Civic Si rim on a 96 Accord?

Just wondering if a set of '00 Civic SI rims will fit on a 96 Accord EX? Thanks!

That's correct; they won't fit. The bolt pattern on the Civic is 4x100, on the Accord is 4x114.3. (The second number is the diameter of the circle formed by the lug nut centers, in millimeters.) So the bolt holes on the Civic wheels won't line up over the studs on the Accord hubs.

Good reply. I find it a lot better when folks reply not just with answers to the question, but also why it is the way it is. Good job nsxtasy, props to ya
