Re: 4 to 5 adapters

I've been running 2" adaptors for a few years, I had them fabricated at a place that makes truck wheel adaptors. But mine are 4 bolt to 4.

mine use two sets of lug nuts. One for adaptor to rotor, the other for wheel to adaptor. So far they have always stayed tight, after 3-6month checks. (Not sure if 4 to 5 lug is possible with the limited spacing, to run proper dual lug adaptors)

....

Cons, not legal for public roads in some areas.

Re: 4 to 5 adapters

the adapter will push the wheel outwards, so you will need to check if it will actually fit on the civic.
7th gen civic are 38mm off-set?

tighten well the adapters - you will not be able to see if they are loosening since wheel will be on top.
