okay...here's the deal, i got a eg w/ gsr front calipers and rear gsr disk brakes...the back hx rims fit...the front ones mount on rite...but they're too close to the brakes...wut do i do/??? thanks....
you have two options, ditch the gsr front spindles(please dont do it!) and get the EX/si fronts(same size disk with smaller caliper) or ditch the wheels.....
i know its a toughy, i would ditch the wheels although they look nice... just think of the stopping power!

i had the same dilemma. so, i bought a set of spacers for about $5 each +/- from pep boys. they are 0.25" spacers.
guys, there is no reason for spacers. take a damn grinder to just the outside of caliper and shave down maybe a 1/16th of inch! i have done this on 4 cars already! its just that easy and its free! good luck, eric
