Honda put lightweight alloy wheels on the VX and HX and lightweight aerodynamic wheels on the Insight and Civic hybrid, but many users on here put smooth wheel covers on steel wheels instead of trying to get lightweight ones--general consensus seems to be that aerodynamics make much more of a difference than weight. People say not to purchase new rims expecting to save money.
