HX's and VX's would be the lightest, but the VX rims are 13" and the HX are 14". I suggest you go for the HX, plus they look better.

Ya, if you go with VXs sure you will have lighter wheels, that will have very little noticible effect. But you will quickly realize that you can't get any decent tires in 13" and that will have a big effect.

Cheers.

unless im mistaken, the clearances for the teg brakes are the same as civic ex brakes. (if not slightly more)
HX wheels will not clear EX brakes, then need a 5mm spacer. its an offset issue, the hx wheels are a 50 offset and most other honda wheels, including the ex steelies are 45 offset.
my guess you will need at least a 5mm if not 10mm spacer to clear the caliper, 5mm if they are the same size as civic ex calipers which i cant verify

as for their size i want to say 14x5.5
