Need info on del sol rear discs.
I am looking at having my father in law bring me my del sol, but its got two bad tires on it. I want to just put on my rims and tires off my civic to get it here. My question is, i have 13'' rims on my civic, and they are really close to the caliper on the front brakes. would they clear the rear calipers on the del sol. Its a 95 si. I just need them on there to make one trip, and thats it.
Thanks.
Thanks.

My old Integra came with 14" rims and it would easily clear the front brakes, so the rear brakes are a piece of cake, they will clear the rears unless they are some weird 13" rims. =-o

If you'd seen them, you'd laugh, than beat me for having them on my car, lol. I was told that steelies look better than the rims on my car. So sad, lol. thing is, i agree. But they were on it when i bought it.

Re: Need info on del sol rear discs.
Ya, i just wasn't for sure, cause the front brake calipers are so close to the rims that the sticky weights for balancing were scraped off by the caliper. and i wasn't sure if the rear calipers were the same size, i doubted it, but you never know with out looking, and the car is 3 hours away from me. Thats why i asked.

They fit, i've been running 13" mangels on my 4 door with a rear disc swap for years, they have the stick on weights too.

I done a GSR Rear Disc swap with my civic and had no problem with 14 inch rims. Go for it. Disc braking is a lot better than drums and easier to service.
