Where did you end up getting them? And I was wondering if theyd be too big to fit inside my smaller rims.

He told me he found them used on another forum. A great deal for sure. What size are your wheels?

The stock ex wheels which I believe are 17s

17's will not be a problem, the issue will be with spacing between the back of the wheels and the outside of the calipers. You'd probably need wheel spacers of 15-20mm to use those wheels. I had some trouble finding aftermarket wheels that would fit over mine. I am using 3mm spacers on a 18x8.5" wheels with a 35 offset.

Alright, now how would I know if a kit fits my car or really any car for that matter?

Dang. I'd be interested in this for my Sport Touring. Bummed that it will require spacers

Well, I have personal experience with the Brembos that fit this generation Civic. They require at least a 17" diameter wheel and the calipers are very wide which is why you need a different offset. (accomplished by either aftermarket wheels or spacers) That may not be what you were looking for but hopefully that is helpful.

Wilwood calipers are not as wide and would not require much of a spacer.

The spacers aren't bad, you can order a set of the hubcentric bolt on style on eBay for under $100. They also make your wheels look much better in the wheel well.

So where can I get this?? I want Brembos so bad

Nice. I tried the Konig Oversteer wheels but they didn't fit well over the caliper. I'm running 3mm spacers with these. (Ultraform)

what about the oversteer didnt fit? because that is the rim i'm planning on buying but im doing factory offset so i can still lower the car

Very curious myself about this upgrade. Any more info on the caliper itself? Is it monobloc or multi-piece; how can I find pads that fit? Also, less important to me but still interested to know, what's the piston count/config? So many questions, I know.

These are dc5r calipers.

The oversteer dont fit with the brembos. Will need spacers.

Its monobloc, my pads are stoptech brand from a 350z with brembos. It has four piston

They wouldn't fit over the Brembos without excessive spacers, pushing the wheels out too far from the car.
