While doing some routine maintenance to my 97 Accord, I noticed that the front hubs have hubcentric spacers on already, as an OEM item, so they must be relatively safe.

I'll measure the thickness when I get chance, but they looked to be +10mm. With the wheel fitment being the same as the Lude, they may work out at a cheap and quality source for spacers.

vtecmec, im afraid you are so wrong, these are not hubsentric spacers. these are your actual hubs. the discs are known as captive and bolt behind the hub, they are a bitch. check the vid.
