Default Upgrading 4 stud bearings to 5 stud

hey guys i just picked up this 2000 Accord LX and i want to do a
few things to it one of the main things is to take those lame
steelies off now i noticed that the the steelies are only 4 lug nut
and most of the newer Honda alloy wheels are 5 lug nut now i
know that the studs that the wheels sit on are apart of the wheel/
hub bearings now I'm wondering if you could just change the wheel/
hub bearings from 4 stud to 5 stud without any other major changes
well besides rotors

thanks Accord fans

Yeah, you can do that. The 1998-2002 Accord V-6 cars have 5-lugs. The 4-cyl have 4-lugs so you can also look for 4-lug alloy wheels from say a a 1998-2002 4-cyl Accord EX.

yea i want to put some late model accord rims on mine and i noticed that
mostly all of them even the 4cly models are now 5 lug so i'd rather change my wheel bearings from 4 to 5 because they look so much better and its more to choose from

I believe you can also use prelude 5 lug set up.
I know you can on the 4gens
