Default 13" Rims??

Hello all! Hopefully someone can help with this one. I've got a '91 Civic LX that years ago I put on a set of rims I thought was from an Accord around the same age. I've been searching the forums and I can't seem to find a match. Can anyone help me identify them?

They are not Accord rims if they are on your Civic. Your Civic's lug pattern is 4x100, and late 80s to early 90s Accords were 4x114.3. So they aren't compatible.


And I don't believe 13" wheels fit over Accord brakes......the smallest you can go is 14s (which only came on the base DX models, LX and EX came with 15" wheels)

Not entirely.

Late 80's Accords were 4x100 as well. The cut-over to 4x114 happened in '90 with the updated chassis. And unless something has changed, the DX and LX models came with 14" steelies with 15" alloys on the EX models.

And OP, yes it seems those wheels you have are the '86/'87 model Accord wheels.
