Default Can I just swap rotors for type r rims?

I have a 92 eg and the bolt pattern is 4 x 100. I want to put on Integra type r rims however the bolt pattern is 4 x 114.3. Can I just swap rotors to rotors with a bigger bolt pattern? If not what do I have to do to make these fit?

Another question. If I buy a 5 bolt set-up with trailing arms, brakes, suspension, everything I need off a 96 ek will it bolt up to my eg or do modifications have to be made?

Thanks

i think for the 5 lug you are going to need to get the ITR UCA and LCA, but dont quote me on that... also im pretty sure you cant just swap rotors

No you cant swap rotors. The bolts are pressed into the hub, the rotors just slide over the lugs.

You need a new hub assembly to go to 114.3.

for rice, OMG. and to op why would you want to get the 4x114.3 rims? only two things good about those rims; 1. there 1in bigger then hx, 2. there made by enki. just get the 5 lug conversion from a EK type R, or a DC2 type R.

1800? the ITR conversion is 1k, and the CTR is 1100.

If you're building a show car, then yes it is worth the money.

If you're looking for better brakes, then no. (Assuming oyu already have rear discs) Just get some aftermarket rotors, pads, and goodridge stainless steel brake lines with DOT 4 fluid.

I'm on stock brakes, with EBC Sportmax slotted rotors, EBC Greenstuf pads, and the Goodridge SS lines, and I noticed a massive improvement over just OEM pads/rotors. Plus I don't have any brake fade.



No need to get all crazy for brakes that are a tiny bit bigger when you can just upgrade the OEM stuff for way cheaper and achieve similar results.
