Exclamation How to put 2006 Si wheels on 2006 LX Coupe?

HELP!! I bought a set of 2006 Si wheels for my 2006 LX coupe but installers say they won't fit. He says the caliper hits. If he puts spacers in the lugs are too short. Anybody got the trick to do this properly?
Wheels 7x17 with 45 off set and 5x114 all seem to match!!! WT Heck?

3mm or 5mm spacers and you'll be good to go. Don't go back to that shop, if their that dumb. BTW welcome to 8thcivic.

Wow that was quick... Thank you. 8thCivic looks really fun and easy to use.

I have been member of twinturbo.com (300zx) for years and people were very helpful there too!

yes, yes. Welcome to my personal hell. The bathroom is downstairs and to the right. Please wipe the seat if you spray on it.

Banana dancing is also forbidden. Please use:

I'm allergic to apples and love to eat veggies!!! Luckily, not carrots and broccoli. And anyway, bananas are funny. The bananas are offended! They're going to leave peels everywhere for you to trip on.
