Center bore diameter for wheels (2014 Mirage)

[Cani Lupine]

I'm not sure if this has already been covered or not, but what is the center bore diameter for aftermarket wheels? I have 13" Civic VX wheels on my current car, and was hoping they'd swap over to the Mirage. They're 4x100 with a 56mm CB diameter.

Mirage's wheels:
4x100 - ET: ~42 - NG: 56.10
It could fit ... but seriously? 13"?

The Civic VX wheels are made by Enkei for Honda, and only weigh 9 pounds each, so they're EXTREMELY light. When I swapped them onto my Aspire, it made a huge difference in terms of initial cornering feel and steering response.

Im thinking about 22 inch rims haha just joking

Yup, the VX wheels not only look good (IMO), but are ridiculously light weight.

The trouble may be finding decent LRR tires in the 13 inch size.

The OEM Mirage tires are LRR (same as on the electric Mitsu iMIEV). Depending on what tire you put on those VX rims, you may end up trading lighter weight for higher rolling resistance and could end up further behind, efficiency wise. (Also , the VX rims are definitely not as aero as the stock Mirage wheel cover).

This is true, I've had to spend a lot of time finding decent 13" tires. There is the Michelin Defender for LRR, as well as a couple General Altimax variants with silica compounds that help reduce rolling resistance as well.

Ha! I already busted that myth.



Worst efficiency of half a dozen different tires tested. Even pumped up to 70 PSI!

Though, rolling on 4 donuts may have other "advantages"...

you didn't realize the truth... there is no doughnut
