Default rims question.....14"

what's the lightest 14" OEM wheel thats a 4x100 bold pattern? are the honda optional equipment ones any good? i looked on wheelweights.net and none of the OE ones are listed. can anyone help me out? it can also be from another company. yes, i know that mazda miata rims have to be machined to fit. but list any ideas you guys got.

Go look at some junk yards.
There are alot of old VW rims that will fit.

I picked up some VW rims that are black with a polished lip for real cheap.
They are 14x6 and lighter than my hx wheels.


Those miata rims are sweet.

question for the EK on Miatas? do they clear 10.3" (GSR/SiR brakes)?

also the miata wheels are 14x6", they came on 94-7 miatas. to make them fit you need to have the hub area on the wheel enlarged by about 3mm.

agreed, well the ones that are on the black hatch. question, is it hard to machine out the center part to get it to fit hondas?

also, does anyone know of any Honda OEM ones that are lightweight? i was wondering about those OE (optional equipment) ones. anyone running OE rims in size 14"?
