Default Changing my 96 spec JDM 4 lug to 5 lug

I have a JDM 4 door ITR and it has the "big lug" 4 x 114.3 setup. Is the USDM ITR 5 lug the same as the 98 spec JDM ? I believe its 5 x 114.3 ? If so what all will I need to swap out ? TIA

Wow you have a 98R? And you live in GA? that's pimp.. I don't think 15s look nice on integras unless it's dropped like wh0a.. I think usdm and jdm are the same, as people put jdm rims on no problem and what not. I'd keep the 4x114.3 though why 5lug?

Yes, but I want to get the 16" JDM R rims and lose the 18" Racing Harts that are on it since I bought it. Plus the current setup on the car is hell when trying to replace rotors. Trust me on that one, it's been discussed before.

JDM axle sizes are different from the US axles, as well as the rear upper control arms.

I tried importing a 96 R too....that is one of the reasons I didn't. There is a thread started by a user named Koala Yummies I believe. I think they had the sourcing of brake parts figured out. Also there is a user named KIWI who tracks a 96 you could IM him as well..

I would leave it alone...but the 5lug brakes are slightly better I believe.

Ummmm.....maybe cuz the JDM 96 R's came with GSR sized brakes.

I sure as hell would do a brake swap if I had a 96. But if you are doing all that, why not go even bigger?
