I bought a pair for my 1998 Civic which has very similar hardware to your insight in this category. The Reybestos site said not compatible. I bought anyway for the experiment, guessing that maybe they would anyway because how many diff vehicles could they really test. They fit, but they made light contact with the discs. So close, but still soooo far. So I removed them. FAIL!

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
