Default type R hubs on a 98 civic EX?

I picked up some integra type R rims here in Japan. plan to throw them on my 98 civic ex. "But there 4 X 114". What would be easier? 4 X 100/4 X 114 adapters? or can I use different hubs, if so....which hubs will do the trick? thanks

Yup. They can be had for cheap and you can get the oem ITR wheels that look sick.

where can I get the full 4X114 conversion? Junk yard or a company? Will 4X114 hubs match up with my stock half shafts and suspension? thanks

I have been reading and people have been saying that they had to go through hell to get the rims to fit. Is it even worth it?

now that you ask, no

doing a lug conversion just so you have an even more limited selection of rims

Also Password JDM is selling the same rims for like $560 saying that "Direct fitment for 92-96 Prelude and 94-97 Accord, and any other Honda/Acura using 4x114 conversion." Can I just grab any of those yrs and throw them on?

No such thing as a 4x100/4x114 adapter.

http://www.adaptitusa.com has honda wheel adapters 4X100/4X114. Is that not what I'm looking for? Also, I can get the complete conversion kit here in Japan but if I put disc on the rear, how does all that work?

I abandoned the adapter idea. But with disc on the rear of the civic, won't I have to get some proportioning brake valve? If I don't the rear brakes will grab like crazy.
