Default Which is the lightest GSR wheels?

I did a search but I cant seem to find it.

Which Gen 3 GSR wheels are the lightest and what do they all weigh.

I think the 96 GSR were the lightest if I recall.

I think the 96 is the lightest, at 15.5lbs. 94-95 is next at 16lbs. I haven't checked recently, but I believe those are correct.
[Edit: FWIW, the 96 wheels are also usually the cheapest because they're so damn ugly. ]

I could have sworn 94-95 GSR wheels were 15lbs.

Thanks for posting up the site.

Wow I cant believe the mesh style wheels are the lightest Integra wheels.

Anyone know what the 98+ GSR slanted wheels weigh at?

thanks for sharing that site man. I didn't know the SSR competitions were that light. Anyone know if it's the same wheel (black w/ polished lip) that you can buy @ Tire Rack or is there a special light version?

Yeah, it's surprised me too that SSRs were so light. Then I looked at their price ($299/wheel) and it didn't surprise me any more. At that weight and price, they're essentially equivalent to the Volk TE-37s. Pretty much in the same league any way...

well at that weight they are more in the same league as the Spoons than the Volks. Spoons cost like $385/wheel so $299 aint that bad.

not sure, but they weigh in at over 18 lbs each.
where that number came from inside my head I do not know, but I do know for sure that the 99 Si rims are not light.

Actually I have to disagree with you. The Si wheels are lighter than most GSR wheels.


Anyways anyone know what the 98+ GSR wheels weigh at?

Shaving .5 to 1lb from each corner (which seems to be the greatest difference in factory Integra wheel weights) will not be noticable.
