HX RIMS
they're 14"x5.5" and weigh around 11 lbs. Made by Enkei. Using 195 Azenis on them would give you pretty good traction. But at 5.5 you'll always be limited by width. 195 is about as wide as you can reasonably go. This is the 96-00 HX. Not sure about the 01-05 HX rims.
I used to be a VX/HX wheel *****, lol
I used to run HX rims with 195/60 R14 tires... The rims are 10.75 lbs. The VX rims are 9.5 lbs, I think
Also, the Mazda Miata came with rims that looked very similar to the (96-00) HX rims, but they were 7 spoke and were 14" X 6". Also made by Enkei, they look better IMHO. One guy on this site was using them on his EK hatch, IIRC. You might want to look into those too.
The 01+ HX rims are also 14" X 5.5" but are 10 spoke rims. Thought about running those too, but never got around to it. Now the hatch rolls (well sits, actually, not running yet) on Mugen RnRs

The Vx wheels are 13*4 correct? I have a wheels that looks exactly like the Hx but has a 155/something 13. Heck it might even be 14 but the thing is thin. I want another one to run as my back wheels for drag.

VX rims are 13" X 5"
Any of you guys ever think of using insight wheels? They are 14 X 5.5 like HX rims, but are lighter. Kind of hard to find though.

my $.02 keep your vx's there lighter and only 1in smaller. therefore buying hx's is retarded when ur already rockin the same wheel but smaller and lighter
