This article breaks down the wheel sizes by trim for the US market, notes regional variations, and offers guidance on how to verify the exact specification for a specific vehicle.
Wheel sizes by trim (US market)
Below are the common configurations you’ll find for the 2011 CR-Z in the United States. Always confirm the exact spec on your car via the tire sidewall or the door jamb placard.
- Base model: 16x6.5-inch alloy wheels with 195/55R16 tires.
- EX trim: 17x7-inch alloy wheels with 205/45R17 tires.
In summary, the base CR-Z typically rides on 16-inch wheels, while the EX trim upgrades to 17-inch wheels with a slightly wider, lower-profile tire. Verification on your specific car is recommended.
Regional and model-year variations
Wheel and tire specifications can vary by market (for example Europe or Asia) and by production year. Some markets may have had different optional packages or dealer-installed wheels. To be certain, check the vehicle’s placard on the driver’s door jamb and the owner’s manual for the exact wheel/tire size tied to your VIN.
How to verify the exact spec on your car
Look at the tire sidewall for the size (for example, 195/55R16 or 205/45R17). Cross-check with the placard on the driver’s door jamb, which lists the recommended wheel and tire sizes and inflation pressures. If you’re unsure, contact a Honda dealer with your VIN for an exact specification match.
Summary
For a 2011 Honda CR-Z, the standard wheel size is 16 inches with 195/55R16 tires on the base model, while higher trims like the EX use 17-inch wheels with 205/45R17 tires. Always verify your specific vehicle’s specs via the door placard or VIN-based resources, as regional variations can occur.
