I think the hub may have to be bored out to fit but does it hit 94-01 GSR calipers?

 

I've head yes, but let the others speak out as well...

hey are supposedly ultra light wheels to run with.

 

14 inch delsol rims fit well . . .

 

yes, miata wheels clear the brakes on the gsr. I'm not sure if you need to shave the front face of the caliper or not, though, but you definitely have to have the center of the wheel bored out to seat correctly on the hub. Also, crx and other honda 14" wheels fit if you put in a spacer or shave the front of the caliper.

 

i have miata wheels on now and i'm selling a set with falken azenis ... all you really need is to spend 15 minutes on each wheeel grinding down the axle/hub? hole till it fits perfectly against the rotor and you are all set the brakes clear fine but i have the hollow spokes not the daisies not sure if that makes a difference

 

you (or anyone else) have pics? i wanna see what they look like on there...

not true, i have 14 inch del sol wheels on my car you do NOT need spacers or anythign its a bolt right up wheel and everything clears

 

these are 12lbs rims if i am correct....

There are actally 3 different designs that look the same, each one having a different weight. The 7 spoked ones I'm talking about. And yes ther clear Integra brakes fine. You just need to bore out the center hole to fit the hub. Or use a spacer.

NOT a good idea.

Honda wheels are hubcentric, meaning they rely on the hub to center the wheel on the hub (as opposed to lugcentric, which uses the lugs and nuts to center the wheel). You need a CNC machine to bore out the wheels for the same reason that you need to use hubcentric rings with aftermarket wheels. If you don't get that hub bore exactly centered and round, the wheel could end up being slightly off center when bolted up, which will lead to vibration and will probably kill the wheel bearings.

 

Exactly, I wouldn't trust something spinning that fast to my own "machining". I had mine professionally bored.

 

why do that when stock 5 spoke 14 inch del sol wheels fit fine ?? they look like 5 fats( 94-95 gsr wheels) but they are 14 inches, they are owned by a friend of mine but i had to borrow them to get my teg back on the road . . i didnt have to shave anything or do anything beside put them on

 

eeewww!

I wanted a 6" width wheel. Auto-x guys get it for that reason.

 

good point, yea they are like 4.5 or 5 inch width im just waiting for my black c-10s to come in . . . give it another month

So Del Sol wheels fit fine. CRX si and Civic Hx wheels need a spacer or need the caliper to be shaved.

Which CRX Si's? These ones I used to have cleared fine.

 

these ones

 

back to life. Will the panasport look a likes clear LS brakes? If not, should i grind on the caliper or use a spacer? and what size spacer minimum?

 

I've seen it the other way around. An Miata riding on some GSR Blades. I'm sure that the Miatas don't have much of a problem with our 15" rims. Spacers should not be needed for them.

 

im talkin bout the 14x5.5 panasport lookin ones. I threw em on a 98 civic ex and it rubs the caliper alittle. These will be koo on integra's front without rub or spacer?

I don't mean to speak for Patrick, but that's NOT what he's saying. What he's saying is that you need to have the same diameter center bore (that's the big hole in the middle of the wheel), and if it's too small - like it is on Miata wheels - you have to have it drilled using a CNC machine, which is a precision machine, not just any old drill press. Hubcentric rings are for wheels whose center bore is too BIG. You have to use a CNC machine to enlarge a center bore that's too SMALL, like on Miata wheels.
