    Prelude wheels with 5 lug adapters?

    Always wondered about this. 5 x 114.3

    Edit: Ignore, offset is like 40

    Yeah but adapters would push that offset to like 20. It can be done.

          Those look similar to Porsche twists.

            Interesting. 17 inch Porsche twist reps are 5 x 100.

            There's a load of those 16inch prelude wheels everywhere. If you every hit a rim, they would be fairly inexpensive to replace.

            This adapter should work, right?

              Those actually wouldn't look to bad, Like a mix of porsche twists and bmw throwing stars.

                those adapters are 44mm thick creating a jacked up offset. not to mention they're 2 piece and would weigh a ton and they have no hubcentric lip. i can make you a one piece adapter and hub centric if you end up needing them. wheels do look pretty good as well

                  Those have potential.

                    Those are gross. Stock Prelude's are STOCK.
                    Use the adapter to go to Porsche or Merc wheels.
                    Or BBS's seem to run cheap when they're 5x114.3 and high offset. do this.
