I think you will be out of luck. If his Civic is new enough to have a 5 bolt pattern anyway..I see it as 5 x 114.3 vs. the tC 5 x 100

The 5 x 114.3 has a wide selection of wheels available. The 5 x 100....quite a few less.

I thought most civics were 4x100.

You are correct. That is what I get for reading a chart from one of the wheel sellers showing 2002 Civic SIs only with a 5 lug pattern...the pictures I see of the SI look like 4 to me. Shep will be out of luck either way it appears. Will be hard pressed to shove a 4 lug wheel on a 5 lug tC

It probably has holes drilled for 5x100 and 5x114. A lot of aftermarket wheels do....
