Default CRV Front Strut Fork vs EK Civic

Are they the same height, or is the 1st gen CRV taller?

What about width/spacing where the front lca fits?

Thanks again,

Carthik

interesting.. do you think if you get 15 or 16" rims with smaller tires. and get the EG/DC forks for the from you can make the front end lower?? because my coils are as low as they can go

Thanks again sticker bomb. I'll have to look up some info on EG/DC forks and compare them to EK, I'm pretty sure they have the same height.

Anyone else have any info on these forks? I'd prefer to know for sure before I start sourcing parts.

Thanks,

Carthik

That would be perfect and very much appreciated. If you could snap a pic while your at it that'd be great.

Looking forward to it,

Carthik
