Civic HX Question

Need some quick help...

I am trying to find some HX wheels for my "new to me" 1996 civic LX sedan...

I have possibly found some locally and the lady states that they are 15" diameter wheels. My question is, did honda ever make 15" HX wheels? I thought they were always 14" in diameter....

Also, how long did honda make the HX coupe? I know they started in 1996, but are they still making it?

Also, do you think the bolt patterns will work for my 96 sedan? Are most honda wheels (civic wise) interchangeable?

Many thanks in advance,
W.D.

no only 14in

they only made the hx for the ek body style

any 4x100 wheels will fit as long as the center bore is the correct size or larger.

I called the lady selling the HX wheels and they are actually 14".... I bought them for $140 and put them on last night... I am tickled pink!

They actually came with a set of tires that came on the 2005 HX coupe when she bought them....

Thanks for everyone's help...
