      hx wheels off a civic??

      does anybody have these rims cuz i was thinking about picking some up myself and getting them powdercoated white. and was wondering if they fit our aveos nicely.

      they are 14 x 5.5
      45 offset
      only 11 lbs =)
      not sure on the hub bore size though

      hondas typically have a 56.1mm hub bore. those wheels should fit fine..

      Re: hx wheels off a civic??

      so i picked up the wheels this weekend and they look so good =)

      but they don't exactly fit =(

      i need about a 5mm, maybe a little bit more of a spacer up front to clear the caliper. and i need the centers machined just a little bit to fit more snugly. other than that they should be pretty bomb as soon as i get them on.

      - so as soon as i can get this done i'll get them powdercoated probably white, maybe bronze and then i'll have myself a new set of fly kicks haha

      i dint have the link right now, but according to most of the wheel make interchange lists, the aveo is 56.1..? maybe they have it wrong?

      to the original poster: machined for a more snug fit? what do you mean?

      and you can find spacers cheap on vwvortex..

      like i need the center bored out to be a bit larger cuz it doesn't quite fit over our hubs perfectly.

      and yes i am pretty excited to get these wheels on and will definitely get some pics when i get everything worked out =)

      maybe the depth of the hub is different?

      the bore should be the same?

      just one example. i have a master list on my home computer:

      unfortunately, offset, and caliper sizes for interference with spokes and such isnt calculated.
