stock EM2 with 5 lug suspenion ?????????

okay so im at wendys eating when i look out the window and notice a EM2 (01-03 dx or lx not to sure but i know it was one of the 2) with a huge dent in the door. After looking at it it looks compeltey stock 2 girls came out of it. They dont look like they are into modding cars at all. This is when i noticed that it has a 5 lug conversion wheels on it (hub caps). After being suprised about that i looked closer and it had rear rotors too not drums. Like correct me if im wrong but i thought our cars can only come from the factory with rear drums and 4 lug conversion only. Im assuming that it had to come from the factory like that because the car and the owners did not look like people would put that type of work into it. Plz someone explain it to me

It was probably someone who had it all fixed up before, and took everything off when they sold it. Its an rsx conversion and it bolts right up.

the only way is if there is a k series or they used a base 5 lug, since the base uses the same 32mm axles

could just be a spacer/lug adaptor as well for the rims. and im pretty sure you can get disk on an EM2 with out swapping. I think it was offered on the EX/Si. I know you can get the canadian SI rears in disk
