anyone know what the SE wheels weigh? I know the 94-96 SI/VTEC alloy is about 16 lbs...but what about the SE?

thanks

 

Do you mean the really thick spoked ones? They are mid 20s I believe.

 

Mine are from a 92. They are tanks, at least 20lbs....

 

95 prelude SE wheels

 

i didn't think anyone would know...think I'm gonna go with the 94 vtec's

 

Well this is really back from the dead, but it never got answered and I actually want to know. The 93 Si wheels are pigs and I am looking for a cheap alternative...

yeah i'd like to know too. i'm thinking about getting rid of my 17"s since they would get too damaged downtown.

 

I don't think 15" 92 rims will weigh 20 lbs each... that's how much 17" rims usually weigh.

 

I think i can shed some light on this subject. Their weight is 22.5 pounds. &lt;---- Found this info on this sight- http://www.wheelspecs.com/specs/wheelmodels/177

 

im pretty sure they weigh about 21 lbs each

 

wow....... I'd better start searching for light 14lbs rims for my lude. That's savings of 10lbs from each wheel! Can't believe they weigh more than 17" Prodrive P1 rims on my WRX.

 

Yep their big fat terds. Us 4th gen guys can lose 35-40 pounds just by buying some light 16's.

 

Yeah the Stock SI's are HEAVY. I saved 5lbs unsprung per corner by switching to the VTEC Sawblades. Then I switched to my 16" Slipstreams and saved 8lbs at every corner

 

I know that the Prelude Si wheel are 22 or so pounds but I am talking baout Prelude SE five spoke, 4x114 wheels like these:

Honda Prelude Stock Wheel Weights
Car / Style Size Weight
93 Prelude VTEC 15X6.5 - 22.5 lbs
95-96 Prelude Si,VTEC 15X6.5 - 17 lbs
97 Prelude VTEC 16X6.5 - 19 lbs
97+ Prelude SH 16X6.5 - 19.5 lbs - 39w/tires

I think that is the one you are looking for, sorry for the first confusing post.

 

not the right ones.....the SE wheels....not Si or vtec

i'd kinda like to know also

 

Not to sound like a complete moron, but what is the difference between the se and si?

 

leather int....wheels.....spoiler....all with a h23!

OH AND SPECIAL PAINT COLORS!!! METALLIC GREEN(meeeeee ) and Gold

In a nutshell, its a VTEC shell with an SI motor

 

yup but only made in '95.....from what i've heard only 5-6000 were made to you

 

Thanks for the info, i had never really heard the details of this mysterious "SE" model

 

Edited for mis-information. But I still want to know what they weigh.

So to recap the class today...

The SE model =
Auto Tranny (No 5sp)
Special Paint including Metallic Green and Gold
Only produced in 1995
Leather interior
H23 motor
Spoiler
Mysterious special wheels (potentially lighter than the Si's)

Some good info to know... I learn something new everyday!

 

whoa whoa whoa the SE came in a 5-speed. I have one in a 5-speed, and I know a few people around here who have 5-speeds also. I am curious about the weight of the wheels also.

And from what was said before, the SE is basically the SI model with every option available to preludes:
Tan leather interior
The highest end Honda stereo for the time
5-spoke wheels
special colors
5-speed or automatic

I do believe there were like 5500 made, only 1995. I'm not sure how many are in the US but it's hard to find another one. I think they were made to be more of a sports-luxury model than straight out sports like the Vtec model.

Now im just confused.
