Enkei Racing Series' unique SBC (Special Brilliant Coating) finish. SBC is a chrome-like synthetic coating that can be applied to lightweight wheels via a powder coating process that results in a brilliant, flat surface that is easy to maintain and suitable for use in winter weather conditions.

Thanks for the feedback ... the Honda Chrome-Look is over 1K, while the RonJon Chrome is @$800. ... can anyone here photo shop them on the new V?

The RonJon rims look good. But IMO I think that the Honda version fits the CR-V better.

Bionic Cheetah ... to l'il KITI After doing such a kewl job of painting all the upper trim & lower black clading to match the B. Beige, the Honda Chrome-Look wheels were too conservative an approach for this L'il KITI. My local Honda dealer allowed me to return them when my Ron-Jon Servos arrived. 17" 5-Spoke CHROME-LOOK Factory Accessory Wheel - Page 2 - HondaSUV Forums - Discussion forum and bulletin board for Honda CR-V, CRV, Element, Pilot, HR-V owners ... It's nice to have a healthy working relationship with your local Honda dealer. Now we're a little Sportier! ...
