i shift under 2500 rpm, i drive very conservative except when going to work on the highway b/c usualyl i'm running late so i do 75 mph on the highway.
the HX rims are lighter than the 13 inch crx steel rims(175 70 13)? i just have a major tune up including 02 sensors done for free ;-) thanks to cracked manifold warranty covered it.

 

I'm pretty sure the HX rims are lighter than the 13" steelies. Steelies are amazingly heavy for their size.

 

i heard it weighs 12lbs for the hx rims 14 inch without tire. I would think the 13 rims pictured belowe would be less than 12 lbs so its not? i seen aftermarket rims weight in 10 lbs for 14 inchers.

 

AFAIK the VX rims were the lightest, 13" cast aluminum. Almost exactly like the HX, but 1" smaller.

HX - 11.75lbs
13" steelies - 16lbs
14" steelies - 18lbs

perspective
15" SI - 16.5lbs
15" Rota Slipstream - 11.8lbs

I don't know what the VX rims weigh but I held a VX in one hand and a HX in the other (with tires) and the VX was noticably lighter.

 

yup, I sold my vx wheels as racing skinnies... I didn't weigh them but they felt noticably lighter than my heliums, which are 10.8lbs.

 

i thought the vx rims were the 13 inch liek the pic i posted. i have a 1990 crx which seems to have the same 13 inch rims liek the pic i posted which i seen on some vx. mine is 175-70-13 on the crx

 

nope those are just 13" steelies.

Here is a really old pic of my car.... with VX rims.

 

i need rims like that then. Or find cheap 13 or 14 inch light rims, any ideas?

 

is the hub cap rims from factory heavy as well like the steelies or lighter? i found soem oem rims 13 inch and 14's the 13 look like the vx have to call to see if there as light for $181 brand new

 

the factory hub cap rims are the steelies, simply without the hub caps....
