i knew from last summer that honda may be launching the sedan in canada since it was already a good buy in US. infact...the SI sedan was never on my list but when i saw it in person and test drove it...i was sold. the drive is amazing...its quick around the corners and is really a thrill to push....i cant wait to raise it pass the 6000rpm threshold to feel the vtec. gotta finish the first 1000Kms first.

EX Stock 16"..........20 lbs
HFP 17".................20 lbs
Si stock 17"...........23 lbs
HFP 18".................23 lbs
Mugen 18"..............16.5-17 lbs

A few lbs wont make much difference eitherway. The HFP wheels should be lighter considering how much they cost. I would be more concerned about the tire weight. They usually weigh more then the wheels themselves.

I second the Work wheels. If I dont end up selling my 17" RSX Type-S wheels, I'd like a set of Work Emotion XD9 wheels. They look very similar to the Mugen GP wheels.

$1400'ish from Tires23. I really like them, but I've found a set of Tein SS coilovers for under $1000 so I'm undecided.

I've yet to find a connection on the suspension. If I can get you a deal on the wheels, maybe you can help me out on the HFP suspension kit.
