Rear Wheel Hub Bearing HUB15639 – 5-Lug Disc Brake (OEM Spec)

Rear wheel hub HUB15639 is a high-quality Japanese hub assembly used on the Honda Prelude 5th generation (1997–2001) with the 2.2-liter engine. This is the 5-lug version with an integrated ABS ring, matching the exact specifications of the original factory-installed hub.

The same hub is sold under the SNR brand as:

• SNR R174.76

HUB15639 replaces the following Honda OEM part numbers:

• 42200-S30-J51
• 42200-S30-C51

This is an OEM-spec hub assembly — NTN/SNR was the original supplier for many Honda driveline components. Since Honda has discontinued this reference as a genuine part, HUB15639 is currently the closest available match to factory quality.

Fitment – Honda Prelude 5th generation (1997–2001)

• Honda Prelude V (1997–2001) – rear axle
• 2.2 models only – equipped with 5-lug hubs
• With ABS – integrated tone ring

Please note that Prelude models with 4-lug hubs use a completely different hub assembly. HUB15639 fits only the 5-lug rear suspension layout.

Why choose HUB15639?

• OEM-spec design – equivalent to the original factory hub.
• 5-lug version – correct for 2.2 Prelude models.
• ABS-compatible – integrated OEM-style tone ring.
• High durability under lateral loads typical of Prelude’s rear suspension.
• Smooth, quiet operation thanks to precision NTN/SNR bearings.

Typical symptoms of a worn rear hub

• humming or growling noises increasing with speed,
• vibration from the rear axle,
• wheel play or looseness,
• ABS faults caused by damaged tone ring.
