Hi. Projectors are great! Better than mine. And the car looks great with the HX rims too. Love the gen 1 insights. QUestion: you have weighed the Gen 1 Insight stock rims and found they are a pound lighter than the HX? How did you learn the weight? That would make them about equal to the VX rims I have.

EDIT: this site says 11lbs, which makes them a pound heavier than VX rims and about equal to HX rims: http://www.insightcentral.net/forums...html#post73025

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.
