lightest 13" rims ever made - set of five
 

i have a set of four 13" x 4.5" rims with a slightly bent spare
four have brand new tires mounted ::: 155-80-13
400 treadwear - traction A - temperature B
the fifth rim is bare

the juicy details:
8.3 lbs each on a postal scale
crx hf rims - circa 1985
4x100 bolt pattern

total wheel weight is below 20 lbs !!!
these are just too small for my civic vx
i haven't even put them on the car...i'm really too afraid.
i can tell they would be squirrely to drive on with my 2100 lb car.
but maybe there is someone who could use these
i would say good for a metro or an insight...etc
or just for rears on a drag car.

i will get pictures up...they look like steelies
but i'm pretty damn sure they are aluminum

i will definitely consider trade for vx, hx or other lightweight rims up to 16"
nothing over 13lbs
i'm easy to work with

Didn't the VX also have 13" wheels?

Anyway, I might be interested. Got pictures yet?

Those tires do seem rather small (155-80-13? My stock size is 185-70-13). What is the load rating on the tires?

yes the vx had 13" rims
they are 9+ lbs and 5" wide
they support more weight
pics tomorrow...

this is what they look like...i dont have the big centercaps however

Cool wheels.

And yes Zeitgeist will make you think.

When the World Trade Center went down my Father and I both thought the buildings looked like they went down demolition style.

forgot pics...sorry busy busy day
i'll get them

I had 155 85 13s on my spare set of vx wheels last year for winter tires, so I don't think that's a huge decrease in tire-size.

I'd be interested in them but for me the vx wheels do fine.

They are interesting though considering how light they are! I never realized a steel styled wheel like that would be aluminum. Good find.

Really, can you check the load rating on the tires? It should be printed pretty clearly on the sidewall.

I have cheap Wal-mart, Douglas brand, 155 80 13's on my 87 Civic- they are rated for 959 lbs at 35 psi
