Question about swapping hubs for 4x100 to 4x114.3

Hey so-cal, so i posted this question in the 1st gen fit forums. But i wanted to ask you guys too since you're in so-cal and are able to personally help if needed. My cousin wants to give me these classic advans he's been holding on but they're of a 4x114.3 bolt pattern. What steps do i have to take to actually swap out the hub for these to fit?? Where can i find the stuff to do this???

Please lemme knowwwww!
-Kevin.

Well I don't really know much about swapping hubs, but I know people do adapters when they want to put a different pattern of wheels. I hope this can help you.

couple of options...

-adapters like ascGD3 said
-change out your hub/rotors with ones that fit (research involved)
-get the wheels redrilled (valid option if wheels have covers... looks ugly if they dont)
-sell them and get wheels that fit? (haha just had to through this in there )

Lol! thanks so far for the responses. I think i'll go with the adapter since there is still alot of space between the wheel and the fender. So it should probably be flush with the adapter on?? Do you guys know of a reputable adapter??? good brands??

Dela: haha, I would sell them, but these Advans were originally my dad's and I kinda felt that it would be really cool if i could rock them on my car. Kinda like a pass it down from father to son thing

check this out it's been for sale for a while (FYI NOT MINE) but this would decrease the offset of the wheels though as they are an inch thick GL.

Thanks will, i actually just contacted this guy a few mins ago, when you say decrease my offset, it'd be more flush with the fender or fartherrr inside the fender?

Also I appreciate all the input from you guys. thanks.

spacers will push out the wheel 25mm so what ever the offset is subtract 25
