Miata rims on Civic,does it fit?
Does the mazda miata rims 4x100 hub match the civic/integra hubs? came across some 15x9 +38 offset Konig wide opens for a great deal in hawaii which is rare to buy rim and tire package brand new for $900, shipping alone is almost $200.Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Mahalo(thank you) for reading this.

Edit (see below) they fit, you DO need to shave a bit of the inside though...

Which Civic? Some EX's, Si's, and the Del Sol VTEC had larger front brakes. The back or the spokes could scrape also though. I don't know where I'm going with this.

I just called a buddy of mine who had pre 2000 miata rims on his crx for years....he says they fit, however you have to bore out the center just a tad to get them on the hub...
Not really a huge deal, and usually miata rims you can get cheap. Just grab a dremel or whatever and shave off a little inside.

it,s 92 eg6 vx model. Iknow the stok 14" miata rim dosent fit with the rear disc conversion,but i'm hoping that the 15" aftermaret rim will clear the calipers.

Before getting HX wheels I was looking into some Miata wheels, this site may contain some info on size/backspace of miata wheels and things that will fit miatas : http://www.miata.net/faq/wheel_weights.html
Make sure you know what backspacing your civic needs first, can do that here:

They DO fit, however, as the poster above me said, you have to bore out the center hole.
The hole in the Miata wheels are a bit smaller.
I would stick with a Honda wheel, something you know will fit without any work.

Something about spending money on wheels then haveing to hack them up to fit doest sound to appealing. Found this out when i was looking t=into the 14x7 rpf-1's that are intended for Miatas.
