my SXi was lowered firstly 30mm on eibach springs, then lowered lots on FK coilovers.

Since sold the SXi and my suspension kit (FK coilovers) has been transfered to my 1.8 SRi.

I also changed my brakes :)

incorrect.

My Kahns are ET45 and they did not clear the calipers..

You would need somthing like ET37 really witht he design of my alloys.

And remember its only the 1.8 SRi calipers which are bigger.

The problem lies on the internal design of the wheel and how much space is there.. (is the spokes flare out or flare in etc etc etc and so on)
