What is the difference between "wheels" and "tires"?
 
A tire is the black rubber piece that is mounted on the metal wheels.

I've had good experience with www.handaaccessories.com. I've used them a couple times -- once with a recent CRV (2004) purchase, and a couple years back with an 01 Odyssey. Good prices, fast delivery, good website.

You're not going to find cheap OEM stuff, but I've used the same site above with good results.

best wipers? by dglozman

What would be the best wipers for CR-V. I have a 2002 cr-v and its standard wipers already have to be replaced. And is it correct that Driver wiper is bigger then passenger side wiper?

Dglozman - Which plastic spare are you looking at? There are several (as shown on this site).

I have the plain gray "hard spare tire cover" (second of the ones on that page). I painted it to match my CR-V, as Sebring Silver is not one of the available colors for the factory painted covers. It's tough plastic, but because mine is covered with paint, I can't speak to its surface durability.

Any suggestions for accessories to improve the handling (ie reduce body roll)on a 2002 CRV?

A couple of posters on this board say a front strut bar really improves steering response and turn-in. I personally would worry about creating more oversteer, though. If you aren't familiar, it is a bar that bolts on top of the front struts and "ties" them together.
 
The only other thing I've considered is 16" wheels with 215/60-16 tires.

Thanks for the suggestion. While tires would help the grip, I'm more interested in reducing body roll on cornering. The strut tower would improve the frame stiffness, but I believe that a larger anti-sway bar, if available, would provide more significant results. I haven't seen any postings to this effect, so I assume that there is no demand for such products for later models. My wife has an 01 with the wishbone suspension -much better handling.
