hx's fit on Si hatches fine. no need for spacers, or shaving.

i know so because I have hx's on my si.

VX wheels, however, not so sure.

Friend has VX wheels on her SI hatch... I have a 93 SI hatch and 2 ex coupes... both of which VX wheels will NOT fit on. But my SI hatch they'll fit on.

ditto to this -- hx's will fit, vx's will NOT.

people who don't have the actual experience should not spread info/data they do not have a 1st hand account of or if they're unsure about.

The VX wheels will fit on a 92 Si w/ 4 wheel disc without any problems at all. My girlfreind has had them on her car for about 2.5 years w/ no spacers or anything and we have had no problems at all. They are close but will fit w/o spacers and you don't need to shave the calipers.

okay,here's the deal:
92-95 Si NON-ABS have the same,small 9.X" front brakes as all the other hatches.the VX wheels will fit since the front brakes are the same size.

94 Si ABS models(to the best of my knowledge,the only year that ABS was an option on the 92-95 Si hatch-at least that's what the Honda parts fiche says)have the larger 10.3" front brakes.VX wheels WILL NOT fit these.
