currently trying to swap 07 type-s calipers on. Keep on hearing diff stories of what you need to do it. People say you can just do it with the upgraded type-s rotors and some people say you need the whole knuckles. Any help would be great . Thanks!

Those are some bomb sets of wheels man. Either the Volks or Racing Harts FTW! They all look pretty good though. Clean ride.

You need the knuckles.. + a shit load of other stuff..

Source: I did the swap.

Here's the link of all that you need for the swap.

Why not get a cheaper and better direct bolt on BBK? The factory Brembos are average and more expensive than most of the 13" BBKs out there.

Those wheels look sick! Nice work, you should pull your front lip off and get it painted! Looks all scrapped up!
The civic is CLEAN!!! Maybe a K-Turbo next!?
