Thanks guys , I drove my friend's XB with a massive 20x8inch rim .It has CAI and headers but still feels sluggish to drive compare to my steelies .. not to mention it looks like a wannabe SUV . I think I'm going to get the bronze Hanabis, that should look nice on my silver box.

Please don't put bronze on Classic Silver without seeing it photoshopped first... neither bronze or gold look very good on silver; IMO they clash, instead of complimenting or contrasting. Ultimately, it's your box, do what looks best to you.
Think about chrome, silver, gunmetal, hyper silver, black... lots of choices that look great.

I think you're right my friend .. didnt think of that [not in a rush anyways] ... I'll go for polished silver then.
Is there any site where we can check rim weights? Thanks

This site doesn't have them all, but it has a lot:
http://www.wheelweights.net/
Tire Rack also posts weights of the wheels they carry:
http://www.tirerack.com/
And WOW, 27# Hanabi's? That's 5 more pounds of unsprung weight at each corner,
and there aren't even tires yet. Far too much IMHO, no wonder they're less expensive.

If you need lightweight, check out Enkei's RS+M, only 15.7 (pounds I think) per rim for 17's. Pretty much the lightest cast rim you can buy, and lighter then a lot of forged ones, not sure about it's durability though, i have the EV-06
