I don't think you realize how light the insight wheels are though, is it a necessity to have 15s? Because of tires?

I mean these things were like 8 lbs maybe. I was balancing them on my head at the honda salvage yard. Just ask Onyx.

Ah then you're looking for steering out of the wheels not final drive okay

Rock some HX rims. There 14's and you can get Azenis for them also. Light sweet looking stock rims and badass tires, or you can always go for rotas like myself and the bazillion others. Or try out Buddy Clubs. Same price as rota's and just around the same weight and they have different styles and there not some copy cat company either. Kosei is a nice brand too and they have very light rims and alot of autocrossers rock them.

ok i guess its either rotas or heliums since i can get them both for right under $450 iam leaning more toward the heliums since they are lighter if anyone has anymore ideas that are lighter or cheaper let me know. one think i know is iam dead set on 15"'s, HX's are nice but i need 15"'s.

That would be my main reason why NOT to buy them. Too many people rockin the same style. I guess it's hard to be original these days.
