Has anyone considered getting 4 front wheels from the 1st gen s2000 and putting them on a 97+ Prelude?

Prelude: 205/50 16x6
S2000 Front Wheel: 205/55 16x6.5


Wheels were stolen off my car, I was considering doing this.

doesn't matter so much that the rim and tire size is similar. what matters the most is if the bolt patterns are the same.

They are both 5x114.3

I've seen it done. It looks pretty clean, provided the car's lowered. Just make sure you swap out the tires on the s2000 wheels for 205/50 too keep the same overall diameter as your old wheels.

So I shouldn't buy 205/55 (Which would fit the s2000 wheel)?


What is wrong with that..

You can keep the 205/55 if you want. 205/50 and 205/55 both fit, provided they're R16. I'm just saying that it will slightly offset your speedometer's accuracy if you keep the stock s2000's 205/55. Putting on 205/50 would return it to your original diameter, so that there is no speedometer offset.

Ah ok, thanks for the info!

No Problem. Post up some pics when you get them. I'd like to see them :)
