Hello All
Well I am tired of trying to find 4 lug wheels in my area so I want to change it over. I was wandering what I need to make it as simple as possible. I think up front all I need is bearing hubs and rotors if it is possible to use my brake calipers. I think the rear is basically the same new hubs and drums and backing plates. I have a 98 HX so what do I need to look for what year and sizes do I need. What car do I need them off of. Thanks for all the help.

He only said he wants to get rims easier. It would be more cost effective for him to just fork out the extra cash for brand new 4-lug rims from an internet store. They have free shipping, balancing, and mounting anyway.
Doing the 5 lug conversion and buying used 5 lug rims with used tires would probably cost more than buying brand new 4-lug rims with brand new tires. It would be the more economic choice.

If he wants to spent $1,500 then let him.
