Re: 5lug without a k-swap and with out custom axles!

Ok, I'm lifting this back out of the archives, I'm interested in doing a swap like this specifically because the set of aftermarket rims that I want only come in five lug.

Here's my question, if I do this swap, what kind of rim sizes should I be looking for? Would they just be the same lug pattern as the RSX?

yea if its for looks, use rsx hubs, and u gotta get wheels thats about it u can use ur stock axles and sensors and brake lines, but ur going to need the e-brake of the rsx, one thing tho i still have an abs light on my dash, i think its do to the amount of teeths on the axles, i still gotta find out whats that about
