Installation notes

Yes — the 17-inch OEM wheels from a 2005–2006 Acura RSX Type-S (DC5) fit a 2006–2011 Civic Si (FG2/FA5) with no spacers or hub rings. Wheel-Size lists both cars with 7Jx17 ET45 factory wheels and 215/45R17 tyres, and ThreePiece lists both the RSX and the 2006 Civic at 5x114.3 with a 64.1 mm centre bore and +45 offset.
Caution

Important caveats

  • Wheel-Size's 17-inch Type-S fitment is from its 2005 RSX page; earlier Type-S wheels may be a different size, so check the wheel stamping before buying.
  • Lug thread and seat type were not confirmed by the sources; check that your lug nuts match.
  • Base RSX wheels are 6.5Jx16 ET45; they share the bolt pattern but need a different tyre size.
  • Check for TPMS sensors if your Civic Si expects them.
  • The OE tyres differ in load index (RSX Type-S 215/45R17 89V vs Civic Si 215/45R17 91V per Wheel-Size); if the RSX tyres come with the wheels, replace them with tyres that meet the Si's load rating.
