[team3d]

I saw 57ds on the net for 450 a piece, for example Evasive Motorsports. In California so I guess shipping and maybe import fees would make them way more expensive for us Canadians.

i know, just because you drive a honda, does not mean it's an acura...

gram lights it's still a very nice brand, but it's not volk racing

JAYBLS. Here's the thread with the 13lbs wheels.

 

[JAYBLS]

18.6lb tires with 13.2lb wheels is insanely light. There will be a very noticeable difference in the way the car drives.

 

[CivicCanuck]

That's pretty crazy light.... I should weigh a stock 15" steel wheel combo one of these days to see what it ends up at. I have a feeling that going to 17's in my case should shed a few pounds.

Definitely. It would be similar to the wheels/tires on a bicycle. Lol.

 

[njhustler]

Thats very lightweight. I'm sure you will notice a difference. The stock tires weigh 22 pounds , not sure what the stock rim weighs. Anyone want to weigh it?.

 

[Dar-Dar]

The stock Si wheels are around 24lbs. So it would be over 10lbs in difference comparing stock wheels/tires with these wheels/tires.

 

[njhustler]

Nice 10 pounds per corner.

 

[JAYBLS]

24(stock wheels)+22(stock tires)=46lbs. 13.2+18.6=~32lbs. 46-32=14lbs per corner.

 

[Dar-Dar]

Yep, over 10 lbs per corner. That's almost 60lbs lost.

stock 15" lx steelies with tires are 37lbs with hub caps

yeah, for si, it's a huge unsprung weight reduction, but for lx, not so much...

Sweet... guess I don't have to weigh mine then.
