Hmmm....now you got me curious. I picked up one of the 99-00 si wheels while in the honda parts department the other day and it felt pretty light.

I think that would be an excellent choice for you Ron. Are you still looking or considering new wheels?

Enkei makes all of the wheels for all honda vehicles. They have a contract. Even my dads 87 accord has enkeis of the 13" variety.
