Default og prelude hug on an eg?

Someone a while ago had told me that the older preludes had a bolt pattern on the wheel hub of 4 x114 (just like the og jdm ITR set up). i've been thinking of purchasing the ITR 4x114 setup, but dont really want to spend a LOT of money on it, and most sets come with the white ctr (or itr) wheels, but i dont really want those that much. i mean i can get everything including those wheels for 800...not sure if thats a good price.

the only reason i want to do this swap is because a shop near my house has some really good and some farely rare jdm wheels and i really like then. downside is that they're all 4x114. soo...i was thinking that if its true that the old preludes are the same as the jdm itr then and it would bolt up then i'd save some money. but i dunno if the person that told me was smoking crack or not. anyone know?

maybe I'm missing something in this thread but I just googled "rotors 4X114" and the first web site it popped up was a place to buy 4X114 rotors for $120 a pair.

you can buy them for 20$ each at autozone, but they wont be the right size. theres more then just bolt pattern to consider...

the problem with the 4 lug ITR swap....is that the rotor is integra sized (not type-r sized) and 4x114 in bolt pattern, one guy on here contacted brembo of america with the exact sizes and they stated they had nothing that would work. you can use a certain prelude's front rotor but you would need to switch to prelude calipers with spacers and crap...it just couldent be done without buying a integra rotor and having it machined (the bore size needs to be bigger) and the lug pattern.

sheit, boring them out for a prelude axle is no big deal.

Any machine shop could do it. Many with the right tools at home can do it.

They are for an accord, isn't the bore size already bigger?

Check out http://www.wheelchoice.com under JDM parts. They have an item called 'GTO P.C.D. CHANGER
4X100 TO 4X114.3'. They don't list a price, and I haven't tried them, but you could give it a look.
