Si rims fit on a Special Edition?

I am picking up a 2005 Civic Special Edition next weekend. It has steel rims and P185/70R14 tires. Will the 15 inch Civic Si (2001-05) rims fit on this car. If so, what size tire should I get so they don't rub?

the SI is 5 lug the civic special edition is 4 lug so unless this special edition has a 5 lug conversion no.

canada? no usa civic SE came with anything but 15 inch alloys made especially for that car. the canada SE probably has 14s, and rims from the SI (usa EX) should fit fine if they are 15 inch and 4 lug.

They are the 15 inch four lug. Will there be a clearance problem? Thanks

Unless the car is lowered then there will no rubbing or clearance issue. The width of the rim usually affects whether it rubs or not and if its an OEM rim then it wont be too wide.
