Hi ppl.. i bought this set of wheels off a tyre shop thinking that it is ek4 rims.. however, when i tested it on my ek4.. it doesnt fuking fit!!!.. So i tink its not 4x100 stud pattern? can i be other stud pattern like 4x114.3? or watever? How would i noe? I measured the stud of a 4x100 and this set of rims and found slight diff in the length the studs are apart.

4x114.3.. the only model I can think of with that offset is the old accord

has your ek4 had a 4x114.3 conversion done by the previous owner?

becaus they do clearly look like ek4 rims...

i have 4x114.3 hubs on my accord and i can tell u no honda, sold in australia had those standard on their 4x114.3 equipped cars.

the stud fitment looks like 4x100 anyway..
they're too close to each other to be 4x114.3

I'm guessing maybe he still had hub rings on the car and these wheels wouldn't seat properly?Just a guess

Go and take an accurate measurement with a tape if you are not sure about the pcd. Measure from the centre of one hole diagonally across the wheel to the centre of an opposing hole. It should come out at either 100mm or 114.3mm.

You should also do the same thing with your hub or existing wheels that are on the car. To do it with the hub (or studs) follow the exact same process as above but just measure from the centre of one stud diagonally across the hub to the centre of the opposing stud. Again, it should come out at 100mm or 114.3mm.
