Pics with working links, please! I also have a Galaxy Gray and was curious how the HFP wheels would look.1stcivic said:
HFP 17'' wheels weigh 20 lbs
For those who care about such things. I weighed them 3 different places. When I weighed them at UPS I was surprised when it said 24.3 lbs since I got 20 lbs on my home scale. Then I took them to the Post Office and got the same thing. Hmm, that seems heavy so I took them out of the box and weighed the box. The box weighs 4.2 lbs, a lot more than I would expect. So 20 lbs it is. I do not know what the stock wheels on the EX coupe weigh but I am guessing a few lbs less, maybe 18-19.
The offset listed on the back is 45 ( I assume this is 45mm). I picked them up yesterday from the dealership. They won't go on though until Spring because I want to keep the stock 16's as winter wheels and use the 17's with a nice summer tire. I think they will look sharp on our Atomic Blue Coupe, like the College Hills pics with no underbody kits.
Edit: Should have stated that at home I weighed them out of the box. Stepped on the scale got my weight, then stepped back on holding the wheel (wifes idea).

Larger diameter even if they are just a little heavier takes more momentum to turn thus larger power loss. I Learned about it in my physics class, any informed beings care to elaborate
OMG, talk about resurrecting the dead. This thread is over a year old dude!
Yes it is. So did any body figure out how much the ex 16" wheels weigh?maiku said:OMG, talk about resurrecting the dead. This thread is over a year old dude!
Hasn't that been answered already except not on this thread...
not realy. No one has come up with the exact weight.
HFP 18" Wheel Specs....
Does anyone know if these wheels are 18x7 or 18x7.7 hopefully the ladder!
Thanks

I'm sorry, I meant 18x7.5 . Thanks for the correction.P4rD0nM3 said:7.7 is not standard.
B.
Any rotational weight added to the wheel WILL DECREASE performance. The further the weight is from the center(or axle) the more it HURTS. With most larger diameter wheels the tire has a shorter sidewall which actually weighs less(at least according to Tire Rack's weight) than a smaller diameter tire so that will help to offset some "would be" loss in performance.Skylinegtr06 said:Larger diameter even if they are just a little heavier takes more momentum to turn thus larger power loss.

So did anyone figure out if the SI rim is 23.3 or 21.5lbs?

I wish I knew the weight of the stock 16's as well... I'm definitely looking into getting the HFP in 17's too
