So I need some help on this, I am buying some Si rims tomorrow and I just read that you will need some 3mm spacers. So I wanted to check if anyone know if this one will work

KYO-EI KICS Wheel Spacers (3mm)|KYO-EI Japan Universal Wheel Spacers

Unless you guys know another place with better prices let me know ASAP!

Some wheels tend to fit without scraping the caliper. Might as well wait until you have tried them out. Paint the caliper a color (red) to see if it scrapes. If it doesn't scrape you should be good! Let me know how it works out.

Lol you should be able to tell if they scrape the second you put the wheel on.. just spin it a little bit to see if it clears the caliper or not. Don't think you'd want to run at all if it scrapes the caliper.
Those spacers look like they'll work, though if you're getting Si wheels you should look into getting 5mm spacers. 5mm doesn't need longer studs and it'll make the Si wheels less sunk. Pretty much the same price as 3mm I believe

I have a LX and i had to get 3mm spacers for my si rims

Do u need 4 or 2 wheel spacers if u got drums on the back?

 

[Markx916]

You only need 2 spacers, Yeah I got my rims today and looks like I have to to order the spacers now. It scraped when I put it on.

which rims? 06-08 or 09-11? I have the 06-08's on right now w/ no spacers and its fine. But I just got the 09 si's, would those need it?

Would I need 4 spacers if I have 4 wheels disc?

alright I can confirm that you don't need spacers for the 06 rims or the 09 rims for a civic lx. They fit fine

Sorry about this late response I didnt have much time over the past weeks... You might or might not got the answer already, but you WILL need the spacers for the FRONT only. Apparently some people on this forum was able to do it without spacers but my wheel wouldn't even spin without the spacers haha. Thats how close it was to the calipers.

I found out its only for some of the lucky civics that wont need the spacers. But MOST will.

sorry for the late reply..i was actually looking up to see if i still need spacers if i got 09-11 si rims..yes i still have 3mm spacers on my 06-08 si rims right now..i had ebay universal spacers and it caused vibration so i bought these hub centric 3mm spacers where it fits tight and nice exactly into the lugs..but i still feel shaking so i wanted to test out the 09-11..i think regardless of what you have it's going to shake but yeah we'll see i'll post if i do get them:dance:
