Default Dc2/Ek9 rear hub on mb6/mc2?

Hi!

I just wonder if its a straight swap to 5x114.3 rear hubs from Dc2/ek9 on a mb6/mc2? I know that the mb6/mc2 have a longer tap ( dont know How long? ) But do dc2/ek9 olso have that?

I have put mb6 front and rear big brake kit on my Honda ej6 and want to 5 stud convert them.

Normally you cannot safely swap the five lug hubs onto 4 lug spindles. Honed Developments makes a thin nut and washer kit to adapt them though. This is the way.

That must be a problem becouse normal civic have a shorter axle then dc2/ek9. But my rear mb6 trailing arm have a ~ 10mm longer axle

They use the 4x114 axle which is the same length as 5x114. I was wondering if that's what you meant by tap. Direct swap.

Interesting. Are the MB/MCs already 4x114.3?

According to Google they are. Would make sense with the extra 10mm axle length.

Only the MB6 & MC2 have 4x114.3, These are the model with the b18c4 engine. The other mb/mc have 4x100
