I run 13" Panasports over disks, but they are the stock Si ones. I don't think the Integra's will fit either.

I've got DA rear discs and the 13" stock steelies fit fine.

Integra disc brakes in the front do not fit the stock 13" steelies though.

if all you are doing is the rear then yes it will be fine. however if you upgrade the fronts to integra or 90-91 ex then you will need a minimum of a 14" to clear the fronts.

This is the answer you want, even some 14s (HXs for example) wont clear integra front brakes without spacers or grinding the calipers btw.
