First off, you have to know the bolt pattern (i.e. the bolt pattern for the Vibe is 5 lug x 100mm). The bolt pattern has to be the same for the rims to fit. Knowing they are both from a Honda is positive, but not guaranteed that they will be the same. Also, you need to make sure they both have the same rolling diameter or your speedo/odo could be thrown off by the wrong size. You also need to make sure the offest is the same as well! Lots of things to look at.

From my chart it doesn't look like they will work.

I used this link with great success to find a set of steel rims for my snow tires. Because of this list I discovered I had 4 rims sitting in my garage that would work. Yeee Haaaw. Here is the link:

Well just for giggles i had time and went and tried them on the car.....and alas they did not fit.......it is a shame.those si rims i have are in prime shape....and would have looked good.........but i guess the are a official no go.....i guess i will have to sell them..maybe put them in the local paper.
