hi guys... i've been looking high & low 19" sport rims for my ES5 but many of the 19" rims commonly available only in 5 holes PCD either 100 or 114.3 whereas my ES5 is only 4 holes PCD 100 & currently using 18" rims/tyres http://teames.editboard.com/want-to-sell-f5/5-zigen-rims-with-18-tyres-t929.htm

heard from a tyreshop at Pioneer Rd telling me that its possible to convert our rotor http://www.brakeworld.com/images/nav_rotors.gif from 4 lugs to 5 lugs.

so any of you guys know where/which workshop (garage) able to do this conversion?

choon motor, i know can do it.

Used to have a ES who convert with DC5R under-carriage (5 lug). If you are considering that you can choose the same option.

Anyway, go to SHC WTS and do a search. You may contact the seller for more information.

I think you can change the lug. However, sourcing the part is very hard When I fixed the EP3 Type-R disc, they fitted on the 5 lug studs for me and jokingly asked me to change to 5 lugs kind of civic. However, I needed to change the front too along with my rims Sad

Maybe the word is "convert" from Ek9

For me is I sourced for the EP3 parts which may be directly able to fit.
