Hey
wondering if anybody knows...are the wheels axels on Ferios different to a regular civic...i kno there are different features in the ferio model but i went to a tyre place n they said i need MULTI FIT rims only
if so where do i get these from??
cheers
Wait, what are you trying to do? Fit new rims or get new axles?
It sounds like you just want to change the stud pattern in which case you need to replace the hub etc (or just find a similar looking wheel in the correct PCD).
if you're talking about stud pattern, all eg/eh civics (from stock) are 4x100 and do NOT need multifit..
nah i need new rims...but wen i took it to the tyre place the guy said i need MULTIFIT rims because i have an import model civic, the stud pattern is different to a general eg civic...hence why i need multi fits
have u's ever heard of this?
nope.. and neither should you, go to other shop mate... ferio is simply market name for EK sedan, hence its 4x100...
i say neva go back to that shop.. coz they dont know wat they talking abt
As the above two users have said, he has no idea what he is talking about.

the guy i went to is a good mate of mine and he has hundreds of second hand rims and we tried at least 20 4 stud patterns and none would fit as soon as he got multi fit rims they fitted on..........confused the hell out of me
his a good mate of u doesnt make him knowledgeable...Quote:

being multifit just means that it fits both 4x100 and 4x114.3
unless ur studs are 100x100x100x114.3
otherwise its got nothing to do with multistud or not
whats 100x100x100x114.3?????
Also maybe, just maybe someone has upgraded the brakes to the old ITR so they're 114.3
Easy way is just to measure them for yourself mate, just go diagonally from one stud to the other
it doesnt exist... i made it up....Quote:

There are a number of reasons that the wheels you were trying didnt fit.Quote:

If they are Honda, then it is going to either be 4 x 100 or 4 x114.3 (I have yet to see Honda produce a PCD in a four studed standard wheel that isnt one of these). In wheel terms, 4x114.3 are less common and on single studed rims (compared to 4x100) and as such that is the reason you probably found only the multi-studed rims fit.
Assuming you have a 4x114.3 setup (which you can easily measure - see the links I posted earlier) then with a bit of searching you should be able to find rims to suit your car which dont have to be multi-stud.
i just want to quickly say thanks for everyone who is helping me and everyone on this forum...its guys like u who make these things possible....so thanks for the help lol just wanted to say that cuz ive been on here not even a week and ive asked a fair few questions and all u's have done is answer them which i really apprecaite so thanks fellas
back to the rims...this weekend ill get the rims off and measure them and see what i come up with
There is no real need to even take the rims off to do the measuring.Quote:

In mm it will probably be 100mm or 114.3mm. Other potential measurements could be 108mm (if for some reason the brakes were swapped with peugeot brakes) but it is most likely to be 100 or 114.3.

4 HOLE WHEELS
Measure the distance between the centres of 2 OPPOSITE holes
OR
Measure the distance between the centres of 2 ADJACENT holes and multiply by 1.414
