The spoon rigids are not bushings, the are metal sleeves that go between your front subframe and your chassis, they are suppose to center you subframe around your subframe bolts since the holes are to big, youtube has some great videos about them

Ah I know what you're talking about. Don't know anyone that runs those personally so I don't have any feed back for you unfortunately

Let us know how it goes if you get them!

RIP... May your parts live on through other Civics in the Hampton Roads, VA area.

Follow up to this post... My cousin got his senior pictures back the other day.. Sucks that car is gone, sooo clean for a high school kid that built it himself...

Here's my clearance WITH the rotor installed.

It's good to know the Weds will clear as I have found more 16" wheels that WILL NOT clear than WILL clear.

This probably isn't the thread where you will get much help with that question. Might want to try asking the same question here-
