Its not possible. RL calipers arent gonna clear those wheels, and won't go under any 16" with the ITR hubs. Change back to the civic DX knuckles and it can be done. The 5 lug are a waste and can't fit most big brake options. If you go with wide enough 17s (not Honda ones), you can use the 12.6" setup but that setup is 975$ and itll take me about 3 months to make another setup. If so, PM me.
