Default wheel fitment question!

So im about to purchase a set of wheels for my 2000 civic ex. The question is that the wheels are 4x114.3. I was wondering if the wheels are going to fit my civic. Is my car 4x100? Or will I have to do a conversion. I finally found the wheels I want for a good deal so im not gonna llet this stop me thanks guys!

You have 4x100 stock, so those wheels will not fit the car as it sits. Why not just purchase some wheels with the 4x100. If your going to do a conversion might as well go to a 5 lug.

Because I only found them in 4x114.3 and they were hard enough to find as it is. Five lug isn't that big of deal to me. I dontmind my 4 lug. But were could I by a conversion? What car would it come off of?

Pretty sure there's adapters out there that you can use.

If not, you can always get them custom made, no need to do any lug conversions. All that hassle just to run a set of wheels...

Fender roll, maybe some pull and you won't have any rubbing issues.

When I mentioned hassle is that, I'm talking about people who do 5 lug conversions to run maybe 1 set of wheels lol.

Ehh, a lot of people run them. A friend of mine runs adapters on his for the 96' ITR wheels on his Civic. No problems at all.

no.. no adapters, w/e. its like swapping to 5 lug, search for 96 spec ITR 4x114 conversion, you swap out the brake knuckles, and rear trailing arms, and it fits like stock.. thhe wheels will fit as they should, no added offset
