I mean, does SI comes with tighter(lower) suspensions than LX? If the same size of wheels were put on, would the fender gap on LX be larger than SI?

What about their body? I know that SI comes with a spoiler,... but besides that what are the noticeble differences between them.

What about SI vs. EX and EX vs. LX?

The Si is in a different category form the rest of the Civics. Its a different car built for a different reason and has many many many different features over the EX let alone the LX.

Here are the things that pop into my head that the Si has over the EX

K20z3 197hp engine
CAI (cold air intake)
6 speed manual transmission
LSD (helical limited-slip differential)
VSA (traction and stability control system)
EPS (electric power steering)
Larger front and rear stabilizer Bars
Larger front brakes
Red line Shift light
Aluminum sport pedals
Unique interior trim and red gauge illumination
Si logo floor mats
17 inch tires with unique Si wheels
Black Alcantara bolstered red stitched seats with Si logo
Leather wrapped steering wheel
Unique Si grill with logo
Leather wrapped aluminum shift knob with red stitched boot
Unique Si specific amber trimmed headlights
Rear deck wing

I'm sure I missed a few things.
