Beginnings of a Spoon CR-Z - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

jbkonis · 09-20-2011, 02:57 PM

Hello Everyone,

Just picked these up today (see attached picture) and will be on the car within a couple of days (17" x 8.5" +53mm). I'll post some pics once they've been installed.

Also have Spoon Fixed Dampers and Progressive Springs on order. Exhaust and air filter will be next.

Joe

Update: wheels installed, iPhone pictures, more to come tomorrow. Tires are Hankook V12s 225/45/17. Grip is NIGHT AND DAY, car feels so much more planted.

...might help if the picture was positioned right side up.....

It hurt my eyes, and head, until I realized it was upside down AND in reverse from the mirror effect... Ouch

Posting Pictures on the Forum?

put 'em on right-side-up and right-side-out, and get us some good pix, please!

Getting wheels and tires mounted now. Will post shortly. Tire Rack got my V12s here a day early.

The picture was right side up, but got flipped when I attached it... Weird. Sorry about the neck warping.

Can't wait to see how it turns out

jbkonis · 09-20-2011, 09:11 PM

See update in 1st post with pics.

Needs a drop but looks good

jbkonis · 09-20-2011, 09:56 PM

Definitely agree about the drop. Spoon damper/spring combo will drop the car about an inch. I'll probably receive them in about four weeks.
