2000 H22 Civic Brake upgrade
I'm looking to do an oem brake upgrade. My car will be swapped with an h22.
Whats the best upgrade I can do for the front and rear at the most cost effective price.

Dynalite wilwoods can be had for about $600.
Front integra brakes with brembo blanks and hp+ pads will probably be more than enough braking power for you though. What ties are you running?

Yokohama S. Drives are very solid summer tires.
As far as "OEM" upgrades that depends on the trim of your car.
Ex/si knuckles can accommodate ITR calipers with perhaps a bit of modification.
Your car isn't necessarily going to need more stopping power because of added weight or added power. Your car will still weigh about the same and I doubt you'll be doing 150mph.
Good pads and fresh fluid should be more than enough for your needs. Especially if you've got an EX civic with rear discs.
If you look at the brake FAQ or the stickies there are plenty of links to "OEM" brake upgrades.

So I guess i should just get aftermarket Dynalites?
Theyd run be about the same price as aquiring all the oem parts

You don't have to go 5lug to use ITR calipers.

There's a solid compliation of OEM brake upgrades. It's a good read.

No OEM wheels are going to fair well at clearing larger calipers. Again, define larger.
em1 brakes and integra brakes are going to be slightly larger. They'll clear 15" rotors.
NSX calipers, S2000 calipers, etc will likely need a 16" wheel or some solid aftermarket 15" like RPF1, volk, etc.
