But just because both wheels are 5 lug, you still think AMG Benz wheels will fit the 5 lug pattern? Im really not sure but you know how 4 lugs for hondas can be either 4x100 or 4x114.3.

Does the same go for Honda 5 lugs? Basically...is there more than one bolt pattern for the 5 lugs like there is for the 4 lugs? And even if there isn't...will the Benz' pattern match it? I'd be perfectly sure before I looked into the conversion.


Personally, I think the AMG wheels (i know what they look like) will look kinda cool on the Honda but before you drop all that cash (expensive conversion) just to throw those wheels on it....you better REALLLLLLLY be sure you want those bitches on your car!

EDIT: hahaha this is my 666th post! w0rd!

They will not fit.

AMG wheels are not 5x114.3

i would rather get an adapter that can turn your 4-lug civic into a 5-lug BMW.
