The Blue Ox Base Plates you referenced, their part # BX2258, are a correct fit for your 2013 Honda CR-V and these are fully compatible with your Blue Ox Aventa Tow Bar # BX7335.

Flat towing a vehicle requires a number of components in addition to the tow bar and base plates: safety cables, a lighting kit and a supplementary braking system are also required for safe and legal flat-towing. You will also want to verify in your CR-V owner's manual that it can be transported in this manner; not all vehicles can be and others may require some preparation to make them tow-able.

The linked articles will give you plenty of background on the other items needed. If you would like recommendations for any of these components please let me know.
