Honda CRX Wheels and Rims

Honda CRX Aftermarket Wheel Fitment

The Honda CRX is Honda's Civic-based two-seater coupe, sold in North America from 1984 through 1991 across two generations on the same hub specification. The 1984-1987 first gen and the 1988-1991 second gen both run a 4x100 bolt pattern with a 56.1mm hub bore, an M12x1.5 thread, and 4 lugs. That spec matches the contemporary Honda Civic and the 1988-1991 third gen Prelude. Honda discontinued the CRX in North America after the 1991 model year, so the aftermarket fitment window is now stable. Element Wheels measures fitment on the CRX directly. The CRX runs square (same wheel spec front and rear) from the factory across every trim including the Si, and aftermarket builds inside our window stay square. The CRX is a small light front wheel drive enthusiast platform, which is why it still sees active aftermarket interest more than three decades after the last one rolled off the line.

Find Your Honda CRX Generation

Pick your year range to see wheels and rims that fit your specific CRX. Both the first gen (1984-1987) and the second gen (1988-1991) share the same 4x100 bolt pattern, 56.1mm hub bore, and M12x1.5 thread in our measured catalog. The Si is the enthusiast trim with the higher output engine and disc brakes on every generation. The fitment box is the same across all trims because the bolt pattern and hub do not change.

The Honda CRX Bolt Pattern

Every Honda CRX (1984-1991) runs a 4x100 bolt pattern with a 56.1mm hub bore. The lug count is 4 and the thread pitch is M12x1.5. The pattern does not change between the first gen and the second gen, and it does not change across the HF, DX, or Si trims. 4x100 is the Honda compact standard of the era and matches the contemporary 1984-1991 Honda Civic and the 1988-1991 third gen Prelude. That cross-generation compatibility is one reason the CRX aftermarket has stayed active: a wheel built for a CRX usually also fits a same-era Civic or third gen Prelude.

One detail worth flagging because shoppers occasionally confuse the numbers. 4x100 is NOT interchangeable with 4x100mm patterns from other carmakers in the sense that the lug stud thread pitch matters too. The CRX uses M12x1.5, same as the rest of the Honda lineup. If you are sourcing wheels intended for a different 4x100 platform (BMW E30, early Mazda Miata) check the lug thread spec to make sure your existing lugs fit. The 4x100 hub circle is universal but the stud thread is not. Compare across the rest of the Honda lineup at our Honda wheels and rims hub.

Why the CRX Still Matters for Wheel Buyers

The CRX has stayed an active aftermarket platform for three reasons. First, the chassis is light and small. The CRX weighs roughly 1,800 to 2,200 pounds depending on trim, which makes wheel weight savings translate directly into how the car feels on the road. Second, the 4x100 / 56.1mm hub spec is shared with the contemporary Civic, so wheel availability has stayed broad. Third, the Si trim and its high-revving Honda four cylinder are the enthusiast pick for street builds, autocross, and weekend track days. The aftermarket fitment box reflects that range. Our measured window goes from 13 inch at the small end (factory-replacement light street setup) up to 20 inch at the large end (modern street-show builds), with 15 to 17 inch the most common modern range for driving builds.

The CRX runs square from the factory across every trim, with the front and rear sharing the same wheel spec and the brake package matched front to rear at each trim level. Aftermarket CRX builds typically stay square. The published width range applies to all four corners. Looks-priority stagger on a front wheel drive 2-seater coupe of this size is unusual and the platform is small enough that wider rear wheels would shift the visual balance away from the proportions that made the CRX a design icon in the first place.

Every wheel we recommend is backed by our Fitment Guarantee. If a wheel does not fit, we pick up the wheels and refund 100 percent. No risk to you.

How We Confirm Fitment on Honda CRX Wheels

Element Wheels measures fitment on the CRX directly across the first and second generation. For the CRX that means clearance from the wheel to the fender, gap between the back of the wheel and the suspension, brake caliper height (relevant on the Si trim with the disc brake setup), hub bore confirmation at 56.1mm, lug stud height, and turning clearance with the wheel and tire installed. At our fitment facility in Chandler, Arizona, the Element Wheels team measures directly on the physical platforms we support. We don't pull specs from manufacturer sheets the way most retailers do.

That measurement work is what produced the fitment window on this page. The CRX went out of production after the 1991 model year, which means the aftermarket window is now stable. The wheel sizes and widths we publish here will not change because Honda is not refreshing the chassis. The CRX is an enthusiast platform that gets driven, autocrossed, tracked, and modified, and our catalog covers the full range from 13 inch factory-replacement setups up to 20 inch street-show builds inside the published box.
