My understanding is you will need spacers or shave the calipers.

Only the Del Sol Vtec uses the larger style front brakes, the Si uses the same small brakes as most other civics. Integra, '96 - '00 Civic EX/Si and '94 - '97 Del Sol Vtecs uses the large front brakes and require wheel spacers or grinding.

Yehp, spacers or shave part of your caliper.
And like most people, I wish HX wheels were bigger as well.
