I have just doubled checked - The fronts are 70.15 centre bore, the rears are 64.15.

I think we may have ordered two of the same centre bore ones up!

Arrived today.... looks like they may well fit, but will not know for sure until I offer them up.... roll on dry weather so can move forwards with these.... if not... a few options.... either another owner would like to buy them as theyll fit the rear.... or send back to usa and do a re order of fronts....

Looks good Mark - that removable spigot ring ensures they fit both it would appear - with the ring in do they measure about 64mm?

I didnt measure the insert as the box sticker said 64mm bore Honda 5x114 etc plus the seller said they were s2000 rears.... but also said they didn't come with the insert.... hmm just have to try it and see I think.

the back of the spacer is totally flat, with no lip or inner edge - hopefully you know what i mean... no tappered edge, so not sure if itll fit the hub or not.

If they fit but need a tappered lip I may see if I can find a local engineering comapany match the lip taper so they'll fit.... no idea who can do it though... hmm...

Those ones in the picture with the tape measurer will fit without the centre insert, you just won't have a lip for the wheel to centre on. Not really a problem but it might make fitting the wheel a bit more tricky as you have to centre it on the bolts.

I dont want any issues with mis alligned wheels... so may send back and replace :-)

What and why is a reliable bhp & lb/ft figures to have safely on the standard engine & gearbox?
There is so much info on supercharged cars its hard to fatham reality from hearsay!

What else is needed to keep the engine reliable and healthy other than the supercharger kits contents?
these kits usually come with charger, injector, fuel pump pipes and fittings plus mapping.... mines a 2007 but is a reflash of the stock ecu enough to map it properly??

Is an oil catch tank and larger rad, baffled sump and an oil cooler needed.... should the revised TCT with larger oil hole be fitted also?

You will not have a problem with the OEM transmission when charging, unless you go silly (like Mr Pitts).

Standalone ECU on the earlier cars is a must but the latter cars the flash plug in versions seem to be a sensible stop gap - however I expect the standalone kits will require more mapping, possible loss of immobiliser.

The kits are pretty good - my car is in europe somewhere still very happy with its charger that was fitted in 2007!!! (I sold it in 2013)



Clutches are the other thing!
