Use WheelWeights.net - Database of Wheel Weights to ID wheels you might be able to apply and then craig's list for the buy. If you look at my garage description of my car you'll find my weight reduction info. My biggest gains were rear seats, AC, and wheels. Good luck.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
