Will 13" stock CRX wheels hit over my brakes?

Im selling a friend of mine my 16" Focal rims and need to use his old stock 13" rims for about a week while my new ones arrive.

Will they fit? I have a 97 HX Civic.

I don't think so...13's won't fit my EX, I'm pretty sure that the front brakes are the same on our cars....

Funny you mention this. Last night I finally got around to putting on my VX wheels, or attempting to anyways, and alas.. the bastards didn't clear my calipers! I know there are EX's out there with 13" wheels on them, hell I saw one just today, but I also know that for whatever reason, Honda built these EX's with 2 different calipers, I'm guessing I got the biggers ones which is good I guess, but then again I really wanted to use the VX's. Oh well, now I'm stuck with four light as hell wheels that won't fit! Moral of the story, test fit those 13" wheels before you commit yourself or you could be in trouble!
