Default Putting other Honda wheels on a 96-00 Civic

Hey everyone,
My dad has a '96 Civic EX Coupe. I'm trying to buy him some new wheels to replace his stock ones.

I have my eye on the newer Civic 5-spoke alloys that look like this:


Will these wheels fit? I have no idea about this because it's not my car. But I'd love to surprise him for his birthday. So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

I've never heard of 7th gen five spoked wheels being called fat fives. What I see called fat fives don't look like that. They look like this:

Great! Thanks guys for the help and the quick response! I looked at the Si rims as well, but he's always told me how much he likes the 5 spoke design, so I'll go with these.

Idk about the 13's because I tried my friends 13's on my EX and they wouldn't clear the caliper.

the VX's wont fit, not even CLOSE, i bought some, wouldnt even reach the lug nuts,

you would need like a 5" rotor with DX brakes, even then it would be a dumb idea.

HX's you have to shave a bit off the caliper, still thats not worth it when you can get some LS mesh's for $200
