5 lug conversion on civic

[BBV S2K]

how hard is to do a 5 lug conversion on a 99 civic without having to buy the ITR suspension??

there must be a custom way to do it...


was thinking on getting some spare spindles and taking them to a machine shop to be sealed and re-drilled 5x114 but the spindle is obviously too small for that diameter...

any suggestion?

It can be done i know plenty of ppl my way that have it custom made 5lug...

[BBV S2K]

i know.. back in PR we do what i said... seal the holes and re-drill 5 holes in it...ill just measure my s2k spindles tomorrow.. compare diameter if its the same or close ill do it like that with the oem spindles ...

[jdmkid618]

I kno what u mean theres lots of integra's, civic's n lots of corolla's 5lug out here...

Crv front hubs r the same as jdm itr fronts nd itr rear hubs if u already have rear disk is s cheap way if goin 5lug just remember u probably will spend the same amount as just buying 5lug from the beginning

U can google for you answers.I have looked it up before and there is a combination of parts from different cars that u can use to make it work. I think that honda-tech is the best site for your answers.Everyone in PR is rockin 5 lug machine shop status lol. They only charge $250 to make your hubs 5 lug out there

why don't you want the itr suspension

[honda4civic]

it can be done at a machine shop but remember 5 lug is nice but its got is purpose the rotors and calipers in the r are bigger thats one and when u drille the ones that are 4x100 to make them 5x114.3 they work but always shake on the highway and when i say shake they really do lol it looks good but its not reliable.. glwui

Dont do that bootleg shit buy tha real thing i knoe a couple of people that did it and there spindles would snap off but is ur call .....plus wheels go for 800or more wen u could get tha whole 5 lug fir like 1200

[SeanJDMJohn]

5lug is deff cheaper than 1200 and wheels u just have to find the right person selling them

[BBV S2K]

Exactly.. i dont feel like spending 1,200 on a ITR suspension... and wheels is ok i usually put 1 set and the car will die with the same wheels... not a wheel whore...

As for the highway vibration.. thats a no no... cant have vibrations on my car...

Crv hubs... i might try that... i always can experiment with sponsored junkyard parts..

[93eg2sol]

Itr suspension is no more than 800... As far as crv hubs uhave to get special axels cuz the hubs are 36mm or have ur axels made...

[SeanJDMJohn]

Trust me when I tell u crv fronts r exact same as jdm itr fronts nd u can use prelude rear hubs
