I'm not so sure that 13"'s will fit anyway. They didn't fit on my 97 ex. Unless your's came with the 9.44" front rotors, then they may fit. If they are the 10.25"'s then they won't fit. Good luck.

1993 EX has the smaller front brakes, which clear 13'' wheels.

Are they the 9.44"'s, or are they even smaller than that? My friend has a 93 cx hatch, and the steelies clear his rotors easily. They don't have the same size though, do they?
