Are there any relatively affordable but lightweight 15x7, or 15x7.5 out there for the CRX. I think the only wheel that can do this are perhaps the SSR Comp's, but they're definetly not cheap, and I've heard they're not the most durable for street use either. However, the their 15x7 weighs a mere 9.2 lbs iirc. That's hard to beat!
7.5" will disallow you to turn the wheel lock to lock without rubbing the splashshields in the fender well...6.5" are fine for a road car...get a seperate pair for track events where you aren't trying to test a cars turning radius
i have a set of 15"x6.5" rota c8's (11.5lbs) on our 2k1 civic with some dunlop sp5000 all weathers on it...i've had them for a year and am very happy with what i got for $400 shipped (rims only)...have hit several large potholes (i'm in wash, dc) and they are still fine
