thanks. I was asking because it looks like I'll be taing the fit to her first autoX due to rain. The CRX doesn't like the rain (leaky sunroof,rust, etc.)
I have some HX rims with some azenis and was just wondering how they would look before I go swapping wheels and all.

Bump for more pics

AHHH!!!! thats nice dang i miss my CRX =( *sigh*.... lol but yah thats nice man i think you should throw it on =P honestly ill look really funny cuss the GEs are kinda bigger than the GDs but prove me wrong by swapping them and post up some pictures =P the HX will perform really well since it has some good tires (azenis) =)

oh btw you will definely need spacers... im guessing cuss i have to use spacers on mines =P

i would love to post some pictures but i dont have a camera imma go slamm it lower today let me see if i can get some pictures =)

You would need 5mm spacers to clear your brakes.

the LS meshies might fit w/o spacers. You need the spacers to fit over the calipers... I have the HX on my crx with integra front brakes and i needed to shave the caliper down for them to fit, so the LS's may fit no prob
