my 1st gen cr-v on si wheels couple ? too
ive had my crv about 3 weeks ago its a 2000 auto awd
i bought some 07 si wheels i tried shaving the capiler but didnt feel right doing it
i bought some 5/16" thick wheel spacers and put those on. it feels fine but wanted to know everyones opinions on if anyone has used spacers on cr-vs
also i have a problem where my driver lock works fine and unlocks on the keyless entry but none of the other locks work. if you flip the switch on the driver side only the driver locks none other
they only unlock manually

very nice! are those 09-10? did you need any spacers for them to fit?
not sure on how the spacers will be on my studs bearings and suspension

yah... nope they fit just fine.
i heard lots of people having problems with using ur gen SI rims with spacers. not all of em tho, just some. so hopefully u may get lucky.

front calipers will hit the rims.. since the center off set of the
Si rims is really in towards our hub.. what i did once on my other crv
was, i grinded a bit of the calipers to make it fit..never had any issues
at all.. i did used it for my daily for almost a year when i had an all
weather tires on it, now on my other V(again) i used a HUB CENTRIC
spacers, 3-5mm is fine just make sure the center bore would fit and
also with the lug holes...(5x114)

the car rides fine but it feels like the car sways more on bumps and tracks more on the road(pulls the way the road angles)
im just worried about the bearings and studs holding up with that thick of a spacer
nice v's btw!
