Athough they both have 114.3mm bolt diameters, the Lexus has 5 bolts and the Acura has 4, so, you would not be able to use the IS wheels on the RSX.

Oops... the Integra had 4 bolts, the RSX has 5 (my mistake), so you can use them on the RSX. Post a pic if you do.

Hey you're in Cali you should have plenty of IS owners out there that might let you try them on. If you lived here i would let try mine. They're just sitting in my storage building.

no honda uses 114.3 for their 5 lugs the bolt pattern fits, probably have to use two pairs of fronts for an RSX, doubt the rear wheels of an IS will fit

the rsx center bore is 64.1 i believe, so if it's larger or equal then it will fit...

what width and offset are the stock isx50 wheels? it looks like the is front tire size on the 18s is a 225/40/18 which will fit perfectly onto an rsx...i'm guessing it's a 7 inch wide wheel so if the offset is anywhere between +25 and +48 it will fit just fine

the rears are a 255 series tire which would be too wide for the rsx to run

Ha! This will be cool to know, let us know when you get them on and post some pics. I bet my gf would love a set of IS stock rims on her 06 civic coupe (civics are 5 lug now). And we could get them pretty cheap on ebay. Would just have to figure out how to get four fronts! lol

Correct me if I am wrong:

I dont think civic is running on 114.3.....you could probably fit it in an accord, but not a civic....?

and 225 is wayyyyyy too wide for a civic....you will have rubbing issues......

Toyco is notorious for using small centerbores. 54.1 is common, but I would not be surprised if the ISx50 are 60.1 as most Lexus are.

I wouldn't bet on it. I got 245/40/17s on 8.5" rims on my Scion tC. They're still on the wife's car today.

the civic bolt pattern, if it is a 5 lug should be the same... 5x114.3

i think you should be able to run a 225 for a civic nowadays
