I hear most people with Integras running HX wheels usually sand down or shave their calipers. You might try putting chalk or something on your brake caliper, then mount your wheel and give it a spin, so you know where it rubs, then shave off that section with a sander or something.

if you have a hook-up at a machine shop, get longer wheel studs pressed in and some spacers. this way you get a wider track out of the deal. plus, you don't sacrifice caliper rigidity or anything like that.

Just buy some 3/16" wheel spacers and you will be fine. My buddy had the same issue and I let him use my spacers I bought at the local auto parts store.
