Seeking advice on 17 inch rims for CRZ manual. The stock is 195/55R16. Online search returns offset +45 and 16x6JJ OEM rims. Anyone changed to 17inch rims and tires? The US honda CRZ shows performance package for 17 inch is using 205/45R17 rim+tires. Was wondering if my current 17x7JJ 215/45R17 offset +40 from FD can fit on crz? thanks

QUOTE(ZeroSP @ Aug 2 2012, 02:20 PM) Ok, CVT will give you a very fast low end 0-60 pickup surprise (the speedo will almost jump instantly) due to the nature of CVT holding at optimum RPM. But for me, I still like the shifting fun of 6MT, and given you said about weekend car... Why not? Plonk in a Rotrex SC kit, and it's quadruple fun. Rotrex SC kit? Whats the price and the performance figures afterall?

From what I have been quoted by JC Racing, it is about RM12k inclusive tuning. On Stage 1 kit, it can bring the CRZ up to 145WHP (160 on crank), and up to 245Nm torque. I got smoked by one a few weeks ago on Sprint Highway, my FD2 can't even get near on first gear, therefore I give up.

About the FC wise, with the right foot... It should not being much effect... It boost you up according to how much you throttle... It is unlike turbocharger where it kicks in on certain RPM depending on setup and boost. Go google up Rotrex for more information... And there are quite a number of cars like Accord, Camry, even X-Trail I seen installing it... I will not say all people wanted it for race purpose, but more on drivability.

Well, since it is a supercharger and well known for low end (RPM) boost, what about the electric motor then? This could be my wife's daily drive, manual is somehow inappropriate for her. But I'm still prefer manual, what to do.

This is difficult then... Because the CRZ does come with hill-assist, therefore need not worry much on the slope... The Electric Motor still works as it should be from start to mid end... But the SC will aid you throughout the RPM.

I wanted average FC for 1st 2 years is 15km/l, 3rd - 4th year will be 14km/l, then 5th - 6th year is 13km/l.. But seems It can't

CRZ has good FC, but does it have a good top speed? It seems that CRZ is a slow power-climber...
