I am thinking about buying some 17's for my stock 91 crx si. It has no suspension mods. Are 17's too big? Feedback is appreciated

 

i personally think 17s are too big for a CRX. i have 15s for mine, and i wouldn't go any bigger than 16.

 

Ihad 17's on my rex and decided after a while that the 17's were just too big. They are sluggish feeling and you feel EVERY bump in the road. I would stay around 16 or 15s. I hae 15s now and I love them!

 

Dude i got 17's on a 1991 civic gl, true it is lowered but there is no scrubage on the arches and it looks awsome!!! jst watch the handling cuz it becomes a handfull (not unsafe tho!!). Welshie2020

No...really! No really! Honest!
Looks dumb too. Like ox cart wheels.

 

17s are def too big on an EF.. 16's MOST! 15s look best IMHO. Any bigger than 16's start to look to big for the car and out of proportion.

 

IMO, yes.

 

17's and up make a crx look like a monster truck IMO.

My buddy had 17's on his 91 CRX Si and we used to call it the moon buggy cause it looked a moon rover...to each there own though, I have 15's on my CRX

 

I would go with 15's so you won't lose to much torque. I've got 15'' rota slipstreams and it rides and performs really good.

 

listen dumb ***, best in class in UK can't look that bloody bad!!! And yeah it's a handfull but im not to much of a ***** to drive it boi

OK non needed banter.. all in all 17s are tooo damn big for a crx. Totally throws off the look..

Its like a MKII Golf on 17s or 18s too big.... Throw some 16x8s on it though
and dump it and you have one sick ride ( saw you 2 were from europe )
and had to throw some VW in there Play nice people!

 

do what you want

 

u might aswell go with soem amish buggy wheels cause anything over 15 inches looks ******* retarded. do me a favor and dont make the car i drive look liek its driven by a bunch of dumb *** rice boys.

 

yO dont listen to what any1 says! Buy my baller bronze Volk TE37s in ur one and only size, 17s



15s are for poor people like me and others on here

 

rockin the black '92 CX 13" rims and lovin every minute of it.

 

****, can't throw out the possibility of datonZ yo!

 

Why limit yourself to 17" wheels?



BLING y0!

Wow...it's a good thing that you're not a *****. That should really make your fellow commuters feel so much more ar ease with your driving skills and general intellect.

 

i had 18's on my crx..... its big, only good for show.... for handling issues and stuff i would go with 16's or smaller...

Yes it can, have you seen the **** that wins cars shows pure crap.

 

i have 17's on my 90 crx si , lowered .

the ride isnt great at all , it already had the wheels when i bought the car . They dont rub i dont think it looks horrible but it can be better i think i might go with 16's next summer . 205/40/17

 

i have 17's on my car and i like them just fine.

 

17's are too big. They make EF's look goofy, especially when they aren't lowered.
