You can't use them... they're 5 lug, which obviously doesn't fit on a 4 lug hub. Closest you can get is to find the Civic Factory Performance wheels, which are of the same style, but 16" vs. 17" and will fit on a US model Civic. The other option is to do the 5 lug conversion (look for it to be about $1200) and then the wheels are available from a few places, I believe www.aj-racing.com has them, but they're around $500 each.

You can't buy the FP wheels, either. At least not from a dealer. If possible you'll have a better chance of finding them used or sold through someone else but I dunno anyone else who'd have them. If I were you, I'd look for something similar in another brand as it would cost a crapload of money to go 5-lug for the CTR wheels.

Those wheels are 23lbs BTW.
