Where can I get aluminum drums for the VX

sorry if this is posted in the wrong area
I have searched as many forums as I can and I still can't find a definitive answer on the insight drums fitting the VX or not.
Has anyone actually used them on the VX or is it all speculation that they will work.

They are the same diameter but the insight drums are not as wide, so they will work but you will have a small gap, I have not tried it my self but have talked to someone who did.
1986 and '87 Honda CX HF's had aluminum drums as well, those are an exact fit for the VX, all the after market drums are iron and the online dealership I checked said that those drums are no longer in stock.
