Did anyone know the size of 98 EK4 VTI R AUDM original rim size? Is there any problem if I change it to Ek9 rims after I chage to 5 slot stud?
Thanks

The size of EK9 rim is
5x114.3 stud
15"x6"
+50 offset

EK4's came with 15's, 4x100
(or are they 14's like the GLi and CXi's?)

ek4 rims are 15inch, and i don't think there'd be any problems after the stud conversion.

[snk99999]

is it the offset same between ek4 rim and ek9?

According to Honda Australia's booklet "Honda Civic Hatch - Specifications" that I got from the dealer before I bought my 98 VTi-R, the wheels are alloy 5.5JJ X 15 for the VTi-R. The owner's manual does say that both 15 X 5.5 and 15 X 6 wheels were available on the 98 hatches, but doesn't give any info on what the 6 inch wheels were for - I suspect they may have been the option wheels that were available, or for another market, as the manual covers models from other countries. The Australian VTi-R definitely had 5.5 inch wheels as standard.
