Spacer Req'd to put '00 HX Rims on an '04 Civic?

[hankd]

so I got my new (used) 2000 model HX rims on and realized that the front rims are against the brake calipers on my '04 VP...

What size spacers do a I need, where do I get them, and do I space the back too even though there is no issue???

Thanks!

As I remember I have a 1/4 inch spacer in between mine. Any place that sells rims/tires should carry spacers and I went ahead and bought extra spacers for the rear on my 97, just so they don't look so sucked in but that was just a looks choice so its up you.

i would just shave the caliper or get bigger wheels. i wouldn't have gotten anything smaller than 15's.

Thanks for the info! It looked like 1/4" would do it...

14's are fine with me...cheaper tires...has 14's now.
