That looks like it to me. ut you need to atach them to the hub somehow. Ask if they come with the bolts to do that with.

Those are like the wheel adapters on my VW dune buggy. I converted it to Ford pattern. Just use your existing lugs to install them. I don't know if they mess anything up in suspension or steering. During real hard driving isn't when I want to find out.

Looking at the pic on ebay... The holes in the adapter will line up with your current bolt pattern. More than likely, you will use your current lug bolts to secure it.( That's how it was in my case. With it bolted on, you will have a new bolt pattern, that looks like(in the pic) will also use lug bolts to hold the wheels. Those should come with them though. If I'm wrong, you will end up with the more common lugs sticking out to accept a wheel.

These shouldn't be that hard to find or get made. I'm kinda suprised at the response over them.


I dunno, when I first found out I could put some Mustang wheels on my buggy, I was pretty stoked too.( I was a big Mustang lover) I can see how thhis would bring intrest if you didn't know they were out there.

what rims are 4x114? I had a set of wheel spacers on my jeep but they were just to space my tires out so it wouldn't rub my springs. There is a place that makes them custom any adaptation you want. I have the link somehwere. might be another alternative if you wanted to go from 4x110 to something else even.

TireRack only lists two wheels for the SE... I know there's more... Should I just search for wheels for a '93 Accord or something like that?

On the same note, I have some 14 or 15 inch Mid 90's Accord stock steelies with decent tires on em. Would they bolt to my SE suspension system till I have cash to get decent new wheels?

with adaptors like these, keep in mind that it will set the wheels out that thickness so when u get new wheels, u can't use the stock backspacing if u want to get it under the fender as stock, on the other hand, it will actually alow for wider wheels than it would without the adaptor.
