1981 Honda Civic Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1981 Honda Civic bolts on with a 4x100 pattern. The stock wheel measures 13x4.5 with a 45-millimeter offset. You can upgrade to larger diameters and widths, choosing from 13x4.5, 13x5, 13x5.5, 14x5.5, 14x6, 15x5.5, 15x6, or 15x6.5. Since this car doesn't run staggered sizing, any compatible size works across all four corners.
This Civic only accepts the 4x100 bolt pattern—no other pattern will fit. The hub center bore measures 56.1 millimeters, so if your wheel's bore is larger, use hub-centric rings for a secure fit. Keep in mind that moving to wider wheels or significantly different offsets can invite contact with fenders or suspension components, so verify your chosen setup before purchasing.
Every wheel we list for your Civic is guaranteed to bolt on and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Vors, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, Motegi Racing, MST Wheels, Petrol, Enkei, and Shift all carry fitments in stock right now.
