you could try some del sol wheels if you wanna stick w/ 14's

there's 2 different styles one is a 14" version of the 94/95 gsr's the other is a more rounded 5 spoke that will fit over 10.3" brakes
other than that the hx wheels look decent, they're tough to find tho

if you try really hard you might be able to find the wheels from the 00 civic hatchback special edition... they're a 14" version of 97 gsr's / 98+ ls wheels.. the mesh style
they're suuuuuper rare tho. i had a pare on my car for a while and they're pretty nice. honestly tho they're almost impossible to find esp. if you dont live in canada

also 90-91 crx si wheels are a lot nicer imo than the 88-89's and weigh about the same


and honestly 99-00 si wheels are like 15.5-16 lbs vs 18-19 for your crx wheels.. the 15" tire will weigh more and the mass is farther out but you really shouldnt notice that much difference

I'm about to get the 00 SI wheels for my HF. You said they feel heavier on the car, do they really make the car feel a significant amount slower?

i have the following honda wheels...
00 civic si w/ pirelli p7000
89 crx si w/ kuhmo 712
95 del sol vtec w/ potenzas (on the del sol and not comin off )
i just got 90 prelude si wheels..gonna get tires soon

on my 89 hatch i had the 00 si wheels..i have no power steering in my car and the wheel was really tough to turn, but the car looks great with em. i put my 89 crx si wheels on during the winter with new kuhmos, and the steering wheel turns SO much easier, plus the car accelerates off the line a bit quicker. they look ok..very sleeperish. i had the 00 si wheels back on for a few months, then put the crx wheels back on. they just make the car so much easier to drive...so now i'm gonna try the prelude wheels and see what happens..they look much nicer than the old CRX wheels, i just hope they perform as well. thanks for all the input thus far guys!!

if you're car is hard to steer, check the tire pressure.

as for the del sol rims, i have a set of the GSR look-alike's if you're interested. with dunlops. let me know if you'd be interested.
