Now that the spring manufacturer wound the lift springs for the V the correct way, my set are on the way.
This 2 inch lift in conjunction with 265/70-16 BF Goodrich All-Terrains, Bilstein shocks, cross-drilled rotors & aftermarket calipers should give the V quite a decent look.

On order now: Crower reground cams, Skunk2 intake, JE pistons, Eagle H-Beam rods, Ported/Polished/Gasket Matched Head, IAT Mod, Custom Intake, Comptech header, hi-flow cat, Borla muffler & 2" stainless exhaust should put out right around 250-270HP.

We'll see if the V can handle it.

Soon as everything is installed, I will post the pics.

What's your spring manufacturer?

VEGASCRVCLUB:

Keep us posted on the results of your installation. Post pictures. I plan to do a similar look...Is your V manual or automatic?

You think you'll have enough clearence at the rear? What's the diameter of the tires? Should look good if it fits. Good luck.
Who did you order the springs from and how much?
Thanks

265/70-15's are 30.7" They fit perfectly with room for chains as well. I am using some custom made polyurethane spring mounts that add another 1-1/4".

I purchased the springs through my distributor. I am in the process of getting everything setup for my new site WWW.HONDACRV.NET

So with a bit over 3" of lift, how are the CV angles at the tranny and the hubs? Did you have the poly mounts custom made and if so, will you be selling them? A CRV with 30" tires would look pretty cool. My wife would like it. Shes been bugging me to make it more rugged looking.

Hope she doesn't steal the tires off my truck! :lol:
