Default Changing bolt pattern on a civic.

Hello all,

First time post.

I have recently bought my daughter a 95 civic and today I got her a set of rims. The guy came to the house and said they would fit. He took them off his 01 accord. Well, they don't fit. After doing my homework, an 01 accord has a 4x114 bolt pattern and the civic has the 4x100. Can this be changed? If I can upgrade the rotors and change the bolt patter that would be fine with me.

Thanks for the help,
Channing

honestly, i think it will be a hassle to swap the bolt pattern.

u would need to get a Japanese spec integra type-R 4x114 brake conversion

if you purchased the wheels already then just try to sell them again on craigslist and get some 4x100 rims..


use this guide to measure next time if there arent any other options:



i got the link from here:

Yup. It's just not worth it. You would need to swap out the entire hub, using parts that are expensive and not easy to find.

There are lots of rims out there (both new and used) that will fit her Civic, including those made for almost any Civic or Integra. Just get ones that fit, with the proper bolt pattern.

you can swap to 4x114, (i did) but you will regret it when you go to find replacement parts for it.
