got most of my 5 lug conversion done. just have to install the parking brake cables, get a front camber kit & find some lug nuts that dont stick out as much, lol.

sorry about the crappy pics, but they are from my cell.

thanks Alejandro. i finally got the right lug nuts. man, it makes a world of difference, lol.

so im thinking of doing the conversion as well in the future but i want the newer tl or tsx wheels on mine ....and then i would have to sell my 4 lug rims now that i like alot and get new ones so i cant make up my mind but this is like probably for the end of summer im gonna use the tl rims for my winter setup

Looks great man! I've also been wanting to do this conversion.

 

[acedomain]

i forgot to ask jay ....are you going to paint the rims or leave them as is??

alejandro, ill probably just keep the wheel the same color. if i had a black car, i'd definitely paint them black, but ill just leave them the way they are.

finally got the acura lug nuts, so they dont stick out. once i clean the car, i have to get some better pics.

thanks guys.

well, i went to a junkyard. got the rear spindles (complete), for about $100 for the pair. each front spindle ran me $75. im the service manager at a shop, so i got the brake cables from the dealer, front & rear rotors, front calipers w/ pads from my shop, so those prices vary. i did the rear spindles including the brake cables. while one of my techs did the front for me. after i got everything together, i found that the bearings were bad, so i ended up replacing both rear bearings too.
