Default putting 13" slicks on an integra??

I have a set of 24.5x8x13" slicks that I want to run on my 96 integra. What are most people doing to run 13" rims without having an issue with the break caliper rubbing?
I was thinking about just using civic front knuckles. If I do this, will everything bolt right up?

thanks.

The Bogarts I ran had a 1/2" spacer already mounted to them, I had full lock to lock and no rubbing issues with the MH 24.5x8.7x13's

I never had an issue with the caliper with my 13" lenso's, I did however have to buy 1/2" spacers to keep the 24.5x9x13 MT off the knuckle.

I ran them on my old civic with no problem, but I dont think they will clear the integra breaks.

Alot of Drag Wheels fit for Integra and will for for Civics as well. You dont need to switch your Integra knuckle to a Civic to make these 13" drag wheels work.

I used to own a set of those. They are arrow midget cart wheels. 13x7 with a 4" backspace. Good cheap steal wheel, and they clear the caliper because of the huge backspacing.
