Honda says HCH II's wheel weight is proprietary
I just discovered this forum yesterday. I've read through the threads on replacing the stock HCH II's alloy wheels. I couldn't seem to find a definative wheel weight in any of them. I had called Honda of America to find out the wheel weight, hoping that if I could duplicate it that I could shop for replacements that wouldn't adversely effect MPG and power regeneration.
They told me they didn't have the information easily at hand, but would call me back within 24 hrs. It took two weeks and I was told that they wouldn't tell me what the wheel weighed as that was 'proprietory information'. Further, they suggested that changing the wheel on any Honda product was not encouraged and 'might' have an adverse effect on future warranty claims. I was stunned.
Perhaps I missed a thread that had the actual wheel weight for the HCH II?
