Mugen Wheels

Anyone know how much the mugen wheels (jdmland.com, then fit) weigh. I really want the white.

Also, anywhere else to buy these. Seems like a good price but never know!

I'm assuming you are talking about Mugen NR's?

If so, the weight is 16.8lbs.

at one point i was eye-balling the 15" Mugens with the mirror-like finish.....very nice looking rims and i love the deep-dish look on the 15". unfortunately its the price that holds me back, they are NOT cheap but they look killer true enough.

yes they are the NR's. if they are 17lbs are they still lighter then stock? either way, I hope the 15x6.5 +45mm won't have problems with my GF210's... I mean it's only 5mm off from stock. I will be ordering these within the next month or two in Racing white for my VB fit. I will post pics!! OOOO mugen wheels, my dream is here...

I don't know if you guys mind buying knockoff's or not but JLB motorsports has Konig Megarace, which is an exact replica in both mirrored and white for like 400 bucks shipped. I'm thinking about the mirrord ones.

Remember that Fit is owned by a girl.
I think they go for roughly $300 a piece

For those who have driven a while with the NRs, hows the ride...?
Im thinking 17lbs is a *bit* too much for the fit to drag around.

NR's are more look type rims, not your average light weight rims, not in the same class to compare.

oops.....sorry hotkamote, me being "captain obvious" i didnt even notice the stuffed pig....too busy checking out those gorgeous rims , i like your shoes.....mam. yeah, the Mugen NRs never struck me as "performance rims" but just some really killer looking rims with a nice name on them. the stock rim is like 15.5, 16lbs right???.....so its not really holding you back very much anyway if they are around 17lbs. id put em on in a second....should the cash fall in my lap.
