Lug pattern?

I know the cb7 is a 4x114.3 can the car ride on 4x100?

[Dyesuperman]

What exactly do you mean? Put a 4x100 wheel on the car without an adapter? Nope, won't work

sure, when it transforms into a civic.

Yes, but you need an adapter. Buy from a reputable company, no cheap ebay stuff (it will most likely be dangerous). A well made adapter will work and you will be able to mount 4x100 rims.

How do adpaters work? Just attach them to the hub. Or u have 2 take hub off and use the adapter that way.

You leave the hub alone. The adapter bolts onto the normal wheel studs and has wheel studs of its own installed into the adapter. You then attach the wheel to the wheel studs installed in the adapter, not the original wheel studs.



I know that a lot of the off-road guys use adapters. They prove to last through off-road runs.

Where the oem wheel studs? Inside the adapater?

The adapter bolts on the the original hub like a rim (like that pic dude posted, using open ended lugs).

The only thing about that shit is putting an adapter on is like adding a spacer as well. Your wheel will be sticking out farther than it normally would.

I was just wondering if i could just put on my buddies integra tires 205/50/15 on mine and you told me i would need different wheel studs thanks

[F20A CB7]

Dependin on the wheel. U may have to extend the studs correcto?

In certain cases yes. The majority of what I have heard is that if you can tighten it six turns by hand then you are good to go

[HardInThePaint]

In certain cases yes.

Are you talking about extending the studs on the hub or having an adapter with extended studs?

I wouldn't trust an adapter that changes the bolt pattern. You could potentially have 4x100 wheels re-drilled to 4x114.3.
If you want 4x100, buy a Civic.

I concur, doesn't feel that safe or reliable , regardless what company manufactured the spacer.
It's funny because I wanted the 4x114.3 conversion for my civic just to get some rims and re-drilling was another thought, just don't think I could live with myself knowing I messed up some SSR reverse mesh, so unfortunately I didn't buy them

I sell the mess out of adapters at the shop. Most of them go on trucks. Not for a pattern change, but so the wheels sit flush, and they can run a wider tire. Throught the mud, back road, woods..ect, I haven't seen one fail yet that was properly installed, either on 35" mud tires or 28" rims. The adaptor has to sit flush with the hub. When you bolt it down, if the lugs or studs extend past the adaptor face, you have to trim them, or it will throw your rim off quickly. You must also make sure your the lugs will hold the adapter. The stock lugs may not work. And the most common, the thread/pitch of your adaptor may be diffrent than the studs on the car. A Honda you don't have to worry as the car and most adapters are 12x1.5, but say a Nissan, where the car is 12x1.25, I've seen people force the lugs off the adaptor onto the car studs, then the factory onto the adaptor. Now you have a hot mess.
