Default buying a crv and wheels(Xxr527) I believe,next paycheck can someone please help..

IM On A Phone. Super Annoying To Search Anything And Post Pics... Are The Four Wheel Drive Ones Reliable? Should I Steer Clear? I Want To Lower It Pretty Good But Harder To Find A Fwd. I Have A Pic Of One I Really Like How It Sets With The Wheels And All And I Want To Order What I Need To Replicate It Like Yesterday But Can't Find Crap For Info.. My Email Is Kurtiseugenebarber13 @ Gmail..Could Someone Email Me That Might Beable To Help Me If I Send Pics?? And Is There Anything I Should Look For Or Expect Or Worry About When Buying Or Owning One Of These Things? IM Getting A 97-2001 I Believe Is The Years.. Silver Tinted Lowered With GoldXxr 527 17X? 5 Speed..

I had my CRV slammed, and had no problems with it. I also had 17x7 rims on it to.

I'd advice you to use photobucket or one of those photo sharing sites to p[ost pics or
just simply add the photo to the post with the insert image button.
As for your question you can read the lowered guy's build threads and find the info on them
page 1 0r 2 of the crv section and you have tons of info

You can do things to it just like a normal vehicle. I have drove with mine slammed for 2 months with out any problems at all, and I'm at a 6" front and 5" rear drop.

The offset is the same for these are a civic or integra, so rims are not a problem to find.

Swype has been doing that when writing things on the internet ever since the latest Android update. I had to turn that option off on mine because it was definitely annoying.

ah gotcha. I was a huge fan of swype - did all the beta testing for them for years.
My buddy introduced me to swiftkey and I can't go back as it includes swiping too. And the best prediction I've ever seen.

(sorry for off topic.)

Not sure how you survive without a computer.. Crazy talk.

Stock wheel: 15x6 offset +55mm
Stay within 45mm-55mm offset if you are keeping 0ish camber. With - camber you can go lower offset, of course.

I'm on 17x7 +40. Hopefully I won't have much rubbing going on when I get it sitting pretty.

You will have no rubbing problems with a 17x7 with 40 offset. That's what I had on mine and they where fine.

The suspension is the same for the FWD vs. AWD, so you are not saving anything to try and get a FWD. You can get a good set of used coilovers for like $400-$500 a set, which is not bad at all.

You don't need to go spend $1200 plus on them to make a set work. Read peoples built threads, we have all posted what we have in them, it's not hard and does not cost much to do it.

You don't need to break any taps of. You only need to grind the upper control arms if you want to be slammed, if you are only going a few inch, you'll be fine.

Plus they all sit in the front forks the same, just like a normal civic or integra. People only grind them off to get them a little bit lower, which is stupid, because that's there to keep it from turning and to line it up in the fork.

But **** it, you clearly don't want to listen to what anyone is saying on here, so why bother joining and making a tread?, because clearly this is useless what everyone is saying, as its going in one ear and out the other.

Also I'm a Honda/Acura Tech from a dealership. But I'm done with this thread, as you clearly don't want to listen to people.
