You are aware that the 2.2 non-VTEC 5G uses 4x114.3 wheels like the 4G yeah? Ie they wont fit your 5 stud VTi.
Ahhh whaaaat :( the 5th gen vti are 114 5 stud right? That's frustrating.

All 5G VTEC's are 5x114.3
The JDM 2.2 non-VTEC (XI 135bhp & SI 160bhp variants) are 4x114.3
The UK 2.0L is 4x114.3

:scaredtoss: :scaredtoss: Thanks for the info Merlin, I had wondered but kinda didn't want to check just in case :scaredtoss:

guessing those volks rays arent multifitment either (on the road now so cant check).

well to be honest the red interior would still cost me £500 normally so it is a fair trade still. I'll be happy if someone can take this one off my hands for 4 - 500.

Could always get it MOTd and registered and sell it for 700 i reckon?...

You could always change the hubs too, the dream isn't ruined. Altho you would be going the opposite direction, it's more common to do a 4 stud to 5 stud

haha yeah I thought abotu it but then it just starts to cause a pain in teh future when looking for wheels etc I would imagine. Plus probably too much time to change hubs. Not sure when I will fit in the interior swap as it is! :p

ARGFGHGRRRR!!!!.....

Ok so the plan was to collect this thursday, Only yesterday my work van decided to die on the motorway so after being AA'd home I won't have the funds to pick up this Lude! :( I have told him if he has other buyers interested then let it go to them as it will be a couple of weeks before I have enough saved up again!..

IF anyone wants it for parts then I will go half with them for the interior?? :p

Best Will
