Update

Hey, I kinda gave up on the flat wheels idea for now; I couldn't get a decent set of CRX Si wheels at a decent price either.

Today, I ordered a set of '93 Protege 14x5.5" alloys (not very aerodynamic, but hopefully somewhat light) from a junkyard for $100 shipped. I'll weigh one before I mount tires, so we'll have one more entry in our knowledge base of wheel weights.

This is ironic--the last person to discuss Insight wheels on the ecomodder forum gave up and bought Honda Fit alloys.
