Default weight of factory sport 15 rims?

hello fit forum. my wife and i just bought her a fit and we couldnt be happier, so maybe i will start posting here some more.

anyway, i was curious if anybody knew the weight of the factory 15in sport rims for the fit. searching ht archives, google and even good old wheelweights.net couldnt get me an answer.

Most similar 15" Honda alloy wheels weigh roughly 15-16 lbs., so I'd wager that the Sport's wheels are right around that weight.

I've been wondering the same thing. I have a '99 Si that is my autocross car, and I need some 15x6 wheels for it. Can anyone confirm the weight of these?

Started by yours truly. Seems like no one has been posting weights though lately.

Hmm...that's odd. Maybe you have a super special Mugen race scale.

Looks like I had a pretty decent estimate.
