For my '21 Black Edition the dealership said I could drop 2 sizes in tire size for winters to a 17" but said to ensure the tires are 235/65/17.
Will 235/55/17 be ok?
Also, for winter steel rims, the OEM centre bore is 64.1mm. If a rim has a centre bore of 67 for example, can these still be used OR the rims can ONLY be 64.1mm?
My apologies but I know nothing about tires or wheels and quite frankly find it confusing on what can/cannot fit.
Not sure about the 2021 CRV. My 2007 CRV, it has 17 inch rims. Bolt pattern 5 x 114.3. I forgot what the center bore should be. 235/55/R17 ... 235 mm across the tire. Aspect ratio of tire width to height of side wall is 55 and R radial tire on a 17 inch rim. 55 instead of a 65 means the tire wall will be much shorter. Will it work, more than likely it will. But, must keep in mind what the dealership said about the size.
Using a 67 center bore on a 64.3, the rim will fit on the car
but the rim will not be held concentric for long. The inner ring on the hub keeps the rim concentric. If you use a larger hole then the rim will vibrate out of center. Lug nuts will not hold it concentric. Wheel will wobble. Some auto parts store will have the concentric circle for the hub. Not the same as wheel spacer but similar.
I recently bought rims off marketplace on Facebook for $400. Tried to put them on. The center bore was good and bolt pattern was good. The tire width was good. However, the rim would not go on. The spokes hit the brake caliper. Sold the four rims back on marketplace on Facebook for $300 just to get rid of them. So, my advice is to always check to make sure the rims fit first before buying them.
