    Cool Tech Man going crazy!

    Hi everyone,

    been a member since 2011 on and off. I now have a CR-V 2007 plate and I thought to update rims from 17 to 22 inch (came off from Land Rover Sport), that's crazy idea. Not sure if rims would be too big for wheel space area without changing suspension.

    Any thoughts, not purchased the wheels yet.

    North west car lovers up for meet to help with this crazy idea, certainly after Valentine!

    Cheers

    22 inch won't fit mate they are inches bigger than the biggest oem wheel, and with those dimensions... well if you get them to fit, the car will look silly as you won't have no space for any lowering without it rubbing, and if you do go for lowering, your only option will be coilovers, and you'll need spacers to clear the wheels away from them anyway, which is why you'll need to remove the inner arches and roll the metal arches. the cost alone doesn't make sense unless you don't care because it's going to be a show car.
