need 5 lugs on 99 CL....Help!!

I have some nice 5 lug 18s that I want on my 99 CL. I've been told that the 4 to 5 lug adapters will vibrate. Is there another model (Acura or Honda or whatever) that has hubs that I can easily upgrade to??
Any advice will be helpful.....No smart azz comments please

I think the easiest thing to do is to sell the 5 lug and get the 4 lug instead...there are plenty of 4 lug styles to pick from.

The adapter will make your rims stick out too far with 18's and you might have to roll your fenders.

5 lug conversions usually run about a grand from what i've heard. Just sell them or try to find someone who wants to trade.

it should not cost you that much to do the conversion....you can use the knuckles & spindles from a 97+base prelude or 95-96 honda oddysee

Yea, thats what i was thinking of doing to my cl is putting on the 97+ 5 lug Prelude setup. It's alot easyer to get rims for that pattern.
