igor 10,810 Report post Posted May 3, 2018 Any reason not to use 12" rims if you convert to old Civic hubs? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I found a guy who used old civic hubs which then worked with later model calipers, i think that is why the 13's were needed. 12" tyres must be hard to get tires for these days?

igor 10,810 Report post Posted May 3, 2018 Yes, 12" tyres are becoming hard to find and are almost always more expensive than 13". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im sure something is around but can't confirm. There is a white one in japan also on 10s, flared with similar exhaust style. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's probably a couple floating around if you join that NZ Honda Civic AT/AS/ etc page Looks like his is a 1978, might not be the same hubs. Plus his looks too nice for parts. I need a rotten one to pillage parts to see if I can make the hubs and disk brakes work, found this blog thing saying they do: http://n600sedan.blogspot.co.nz/2014/03/brake-caliper-rotor-conversion-1972.html But driveshafts don't, so would need to work something out there. I wonder if accord or shuttle stuff would work? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cool thanks, if I can't find one a bit closer I'll let you know. I'd be looking at hubs, discs, calipers, driveshafts and maybe wheels so probably a bit to send.
