Same here. But certainly not with those wheels. They're hideous. Later, QD.

No I don't, lolol. That means he just....................I'm not going to get all into that. I have my opinion and it is that those wheels do not look good at all. Later, QD.

I'm not dumb enough to argue that with you lol. I just respect when people spend the money on legitimate wheels when anyone can spend a fraction of the price on Rotas.

Looks good and also I'm not to much a fan of the wheel but I do the fact he did buy the real deal , and go the cheap way out .

Not this. It's AWD. Keep stock height and use it for what it is. If the wheels were silver, it would be awesome.

No please get into that. I will say tho please do not have something stupid to say if your going to get in your ride in the morning and drive off on some damn Rota or Tenzo's.

Doesn't matter much I liked the wheels that's why I had them on.

Yea couldn't lower this would take away from the awd but just couldn't find any silver or polished wheels to run. Got tired of looking and ran across these emo's and went with them.

Ahh, I see. I am digging the wheel color though with the color of the car.

AWD turbo set up!!!

LOL I actually met a guy from SC that was running a turbo setup on an AWD auto CRV. It was very nice setup on his CRV but if mine was a 5spd might actually be a thought.

I don't care how real your really real wheels are, if they look like shit on your car, they look like shit on your car.

I don't believe that is the case for this car, but don't sucker yourself into thinking that just because you have "authentic" wheels they look good(or better than some cheaper knockoffs) on your car. Grow up. Use your head.

I went with thicker spoke 17s on my CR-V even though it was tempting to go bigger and lower. Watch your clearance as It looks like you may have rubbing issues when turned lock to lock.

I think the wheels look damn good.

BUT I would get a correct diameter offroad tire. The ones you have now just look like they are the wrong size.

Not once did I ever say that. But thanks for your own grown up comments. I liked the way they looked so again I will try to grow up if you do, thanks!

I hope to have one by September, before our new baby gets here.
I was thinking 17's or 18's, with about a 5" drop.
If anybody comes across a first gen that needs a motor, or something, PLEASE, let me know!

dude, do your research before you reach maximum failure...... too late.


props on getting the real deal, im onboard with QD on this one, the wheels look strange on this. but to each their own i guess.

Honestly, this is one of the better looking setups ive seen on a stock crv, I do really like those wheels. Good luck with the turbo build

Oh well too bad, guess I don't need to do any research then:slap:

Yea probably would run a 50 series tire but for an everyday driven vehicle I prefer to have some tire there instead of a low profile tire. I would run a 50 series instead of the 55 I have now but wouldn't run anything smaller than 50 series. Been that route when I was younger and not worth the trouble to me to run low profile tires on a DD.
