Show me your WHEELS!
I miss mine. I sold it 8 years ago to some young gun in NJ. I hope it's not riced out now

Again great looking wheels/tires on the CRX. I guess the white lettering takes me back to the playing with hot wheels / muscle car days. :smile:
10-4 is that a CB antenea on the back of the CRX good buddy?
Say it isn't so:smile: cause we got us a convoy.

I have the BFGoodrich KDW2's and they are great. I would not suggest anyone go too crazy before you scrub in any new tires, but since that point I have been very satisfied in the dry and wet. The only drawback is that they have some road noise issues - I usually have to turn up my stereo when I get on the highway. I don't have an exhaust yet so, besides the rattles and squeaks, the tires are the loudest thing on the car during moderate highway driving. Sticky though. (215/45/17)

Purchased from www.wheelmax.com 17x7 with 205/40/17 tires - these replaced the factory s-lites (why did I wait so long
)
)
mini-matt, looking very good!
badassmini- are you going to lower your ride? Bisch had some 205/50's
I think and they look kick butt in that design. what size are your tires?
They look pretty thick and comfortable.:smile:

The tires are 205-55-15 toyo T1S. Car will be lowered soon. Trying to decide on which springs to get. Looking at the new M7 or the Alta springs. I have about 2 1/4" gap in the front and 2" gap in the rear. Also got a mini madness bar to install w/ the springs.
Sounds good. :smile: You'll like the look even more after the lowering.
Im running on H-sport springs and they're good for street, a little quick
rebound on the fast turns on stock struts. You might be better off with
the M7's if you are running stock struts. The Alta's are also a good choice
but won't lower the ride too much (which is also a good thing for some
people).
When you're done with those T1's, you might want to try the AzenisSport
in 205/50/15 size. They look kickbutt and apparently grip very well on the dry.

I need to hide my wheels now, I had a bad interaction with driving, balancing chineese take-out, and a curb..... Surface damage only.
Guess I can start to have sepperate racing wheels and tires soon
Glad they were just Kosei Racing wheels.....

I did a search in this thread and couldn't find this wheel, so here is a pic. If in fact this wheel is already included in this thread I'll try to delete this post. It's an R90 rip-off, but it's affordable, not heavy and the offset is in the OEM range of 45-50 (which is somewhat rare I've found) for the 16" size. I got 'em from Tirerack. I believe they were $159 each, weigh 16.7 pounds and have an offset of 45.

My new wheels are polished 18x7 rotary forged billet Centerline Excels that weight around 16 lbs. each.
My car is not lowered and I only have the standard MC suspension and the ride is not ruff or jaring and there is no rubbing with 18 inch wheels and 225/35ZR-18 Nitto NT 555 Extreme Performance tires.
