1995 Honda Civic cx

Well when i bought my car unknown ot me at the time since i was still new to honda it had 2000si rims on it in very nice condition but now im thinking of going with something else though im not sure if it will be good for me to do since of coarse im planning a gsr front disc conversion and rear disc as well and i dont think that the rims i would be interested in getting would work....

i.e. the rims i am thinking about are honda vx/hx rims the lighter or bmw e30 bottle caps.

but yea im not to sure if the rim would work with gsr brakes up front since they are quite large....any ideas? if they will fit or not?

vx = no way (13")
hx (14") should fit with a 10mm spacer or if you grind a little off the caliper bracket, but double check my advice on that because it was something I read once, not anything I've seen in person.

not sure on the bottlecaps
