question on rim selection

Most of the Honda/Acura wheels of that age are 4x100, so should fit fine.

lol never even thought about how they would fit thanks seti20. you think they would look ok on a crx?

Not my thing, but alot better than 90% of the ugly aftermarket wheels outthere.

Hard to tell. What would you be wearing, shorts? jeans? are you a tennis shoe type of guy or do you prefer loafers?
Sarcasm aside, you are asking about personal taste, what you find pleasant might not be somene elses taste. This is the test you need to do. Put the wheels on the car, step back, look at them and ask yourself. Do I like them?

to each is their own man... personally I don't mind em so much! they look pretty good, but I'd like to see a pic with them on a CRX

not bad at all... got a little camber in the pic too :wink:

LOL. crxter your right it all comes down to what i like. i had never seen them on a crx so i was just wondering if anyone had them on their crx or if they had seen them on a crx. just wanted to hear opinions. thanks for the reply

Laure, dude thanks for the photoshop! i like. i think i'm ganna get em because even if i dont like the finished product they are going for 150.
thanks for the comments your guys are the best

They look ok, and will def ride better than the 17's.

Tires will be cheaper and with a 15" rim, ride will be better and you can have a little more sidewall.

cool thanks you guys, if i do go ahead and get them would the car sit lower?
nice crx krix 8)

If you get the right size tires it won't change your ride height. For 15s you want 195/50-15 tires.

I gues it would depend on if you have impromperly zied 17" tires ontheir now..

Nope the 15's will NOT make your car sit lower. AS long as you keep the diameter somewhat the same, you will be find.

Say that you have 205/40/17's on your car, that is VERY close if not the same in diamter to a 15" rim with 205/50's on them.

I'm being anal here, but a 205/40-17 is .39 inches taller than a 205/50-15, which is already .33 inches larger than 185/60-14.

In other words, a 205/40-17 tire makes your speedo read 3.2% low.

what do you mean matt, depends on the improperly sized 17s?

good i'm glad it wont make it sit lower because i like how it is now.

You're right.
Playing with your tires/rims diamter can throw your speedometer off, but the question was if it would lower the car.

What i do know for sure, last year I took a 17" rim that had a 205/40 tire mounted on it. Layed it down and set a 15" Integra GSR rim on it that had a 205/50 tire mounted on it. The total diameter was nearly identical.

So, NO, it will not lower your car, but will throw your speedometer off a little.

meh my 17s ride just fine

Its just personal preference. I got a set of new tires for under $200 for them. I just put these on yesterday since I was pulling my h22 crx apart.
