Hey, I’m kind of in a dilemma here. I have two sets of rims for my CRX, but I don’t know which set to choose, so I’m asking for IA’s opinion. I love my Helium’s (they’re on my car now) since they are very lightweight (around 10lbs) and they are 15in. While my Mr5 are only 14in, but they are becoming rare. So which way should I go, JDM or lightweight????

Wanna bet, I believe there's a good 5-7lb weight difference between the two!

Hold your horses baby j! I haven't decided yet on what I'm going to do. If I sell them you'll be the first I call (types while crossing fingers).

I still haven't found a set of Mugen wheels that don't look like complete ass to me. I don't really care if an item is JDM or not. Ugly is ugly if it is a set of rare Mugen wheels or some space-ship body kit molded onto a poor Civic with bondo. The MR5s are going to be worth the most right now while the whole JDM craze is going on. After it passes, they will be less valuable until many years down the road when imports go through their whole Barrett-Jackson phase.
Cliff Notes:
MR5's are ugly and JDM is bullshit.
Heliums FTW. (They'll clear larger brakes if you ever get any later too).
