Yes it will fit, but the offset and outer diameter (if you keep the CTR tire) will be incorrect....

Huh? 15" tires won't fit these wheels!!! Bigger outer diameter = worse acceleration and indicated speed on speedo will be lower.
I won't buy these CTR wheels because they are heavy (22 lbs or something)....

What i meant is replacing my entire oem 15in USDM setup with these if they fit because my oem 15s are worn.

17´s arent worth it unless they are very light... I would be interested to see a pic of a ITR with those wheels though....

I would also like to see them on an ITR... I've seen the CW CTR rims on a DC5R though.... but would like to see it on a DC2R.... still I like those rims.... but the only debate is the weight..

This question was brought up on a UK honda site.
The general consensus was that the new CTR's although they are a 5x 114.3 pcd, have a smaller centre thingy.. (hub)
So the hole in the middle wont be big enough to fit over the Teg locating lip.
Not sure if this is correct thou so dont flame me if im wrong.
Would be worth making sure before buying them

I'd be surprised if new CTR wheels had a smaller center bore size than the DC5/DC2 ITR. The Spoon DC5 ITR had CTR wheels on it. I have also tried fitting one of my 15" OEM DC2 wheels on the rear of an export DC5 ITR and the center bore fit was perfect. I guess there is always a chance that the length of the hub center on the DC2 and other Hondas may be longer and may not enable the CTR wheel to be fitted without modification of some sort. If they really are 22lbs I'd run a mile. I wouldn't use a 17" wheel over 16lbs.
