Stock CRX HF wheels are 13" steel wheels that are 4.5" wide and weigh around 12-13 pounds, stock civic vx wheels are also 13" by 4.5" wide alloy wheels but weigh around 11 pounds, same with the civic HX rims only they are 14" around, not sure how wide but in the 11 pound range, I think Honda Insight rims are a bit lighter, are also 14" by I think 4.5" with a smooth face to them so you could skip the wheel cover cost and wheel cover weight.
You might also check in to 1985 and maybe 1986 crx hf rear brake drums, along with the first gen honda insight rear brake drums as they were both aluminum drums instead of cast iron.
