4x114 -- 11" Front Brakes and clearances
did a trial fit of some 11" front brakes on my civic today. I was under the impression that I had to shave the caliper or else it would touch the rims. This is not true. It cleared perfectly on my 2 sets of 15" rims.
Parts used: 92-96 Prelude VTEC Rotors, Pads, Calipers, Brackets, ITR front Brake lines, Everything bolted up perfectly.
This is now my solution to the problem of non-available replacement parts for the front rotors.
I know this has been covered, but this was my experience and my 2 cents
Compares the stock rotors to the 11" ones
With my Accord Wheels
With Sprint CP-F's
with Si Hubcaps

fastbrakes.com has an 11" front caliper for Civics which will fit under stock 15" rims as well.</TD></TR></TABLE>
But it's expensive for the kit which uses the larger calipers and the other kit just uses the stock Integra calipers with 11" rotors.
Junkyard setups rock
I'm running the same thing pretty much.

which is all cool and dandy, I just threw that out there cause it seemed you didn't think they'd fit.

told you it all depends on what wheels you rock.
FYI. the best thing about using stock setups is if somthing fales, its just a quick run down to the auto parts store to get a replacment. AND THE ***** CHEAP to replace.
No custome parts, no 2 weeks shipping, no on back order bull ****. Stock stuff is ALWAYS availiable same day just about.
