How much do the Civic Hybrid wheels weigh? On a previous vehicle I used Prius 15" wheels, they were both very lightweight (14lbs?) and had fairly smooth covers which I considered the best of both worlds. Plus they looked very stock-ish.

One thing to ensure is that the wheels not only are similar in lug pattern but also offset (how far in or out the hub face is from the center of the wheel) and seat type (is the wheel centered on the hub or on the lug nuts). This will prevent you from having any bearing or balancing issues respectively.
