Default 17" stock honda wheels!(jdm)

I was browsing the net and came across honda's japanese website. on that site I saw pictures of the s2000 with a set of modulo euro performance R5 wheels. It seems that in japan you can get these as an option. I really like the look of these wheels and was wondering if anyone has any more info about them or if it would be possible to get them.

I thought Tim at MGRacing sold a set. Do a search for Honda Modulo Wheels and you should find it.

I thought they looked awesome, but if I remember correctly they weighed a ton?

5 pounds per wheel right?
Id go for these wheels in a second if they were 3-5 pounds lighter than stock. They look awesome, but for the dough Ill hold out in hopes a manufacturer will make a wheel that will allow me to shed 20 pounds rather than gain 20 pounds.
Tim please let me know when you find a wheel that fits this description. Id be psyched with a lightweight forged 17" version with the stock look. I havent seen one that works for me yet.

I cannot find the post but I think they weigh about 22 lbs each in the 17" size. There are aftermarket 17" (like the OZ Superleggara) that weigh about 6+ lbs lighter in the same size.

I have seen the wheels as well as Modulo's awsome real tatanium dash peices (which I am tring to see if they make them for left hand drive), and Modulo's sports exhaust. I have a friend Dave who imports all sorts of Japanese parts for the local shops. I have already told him to look into getting me the Modulo exhaust... if your interested in the wheels let me know and I will ask him to look into it. Wheels I know are cake to bring in!
