Either Mini City or Civic rotors can be used in (some) 10" wheels but they both need to be machined down to 7.9" diameter.
I don't recommend this any more, there is too much trimming of caliper and pad brackets (and pads) to fit. Go buy some S brakes instead. :wink:
Stock 9.1" Civic rotors will fit into 13s or some 12s, with no caliper mods- it's a better bet.

im currently doing a conversion using honda city turbo discs.. vented compared to the solid honda citys
i think i read somewhere the doc sayn you could make them fit under a 10" hotwire but the amount that would need to come off the caliper and pads is not worth it.. just set them up and they easy fit under a 12
but they are vented
