Found this list earlier this week while searching for the weight of the wheels my new 2001 Tibby came with:
Wheel Weight List
Pretty extensive list if I do say so myself. My new Tibby came with some Tenzo R Sinko wheels in silver which I must say do look awesome given that my car is also silver, but... they do weigh about 21lbs each without tires which royally sucks.

I can get some cheap russian forged rims:
the lightest 14" -> 14x5.5" - 4.6 kg = 10.14 lbs
the lightest 15" -> 15x6" - 5 kg = 11.02 lbs
17x7.5" - 6.9 kg = 15.21 lbs
the lightest 14" -> 14x5.5" - 4.6 kg = 10.14 lbs
the lightest 15" -> 15x6" - 5 kg = 11.02 lbs
17x7.5" - 6.9 kg = 15.21 lbs

Much appreciated.
I drool for these:

I might have to do something about that. 21lbs is just IMO too much unsprung weight for what I want to do which is mostly 1/4 mile dragging and the occasional weekend stint at my local SOLO1 / SOLO2 circuit.

oooh, i just started liking my vx-8's even more (thanks for the link redz) on there it says they are only 17lbs. I knew they felt light but I wasn't sure how light.
I think it was random that said that if a wheel's weight was
