03 OE wheel weight

I'm going to be in the market for new wheels for my 03 polished titanium and would like lighter weight wheels than the OEs...except I don't know what they weigh (without the tire). I am sure this is a . Any any input on suggestions is encouraged. I'm sticking with OE size (17" wheel and 225/50 tires) and under $300/wheel.

As a general suggestion, go with 17x7.5 or 8 instead of 17x7. Also, go with 235/45/17 rubber instead of the OEM size. Rubber is more available in that size, generally cheaper, and it looks better.

The OEM wheel/tire combo is 49lbs (25 for just the rim). I bought Enkei ZR1s (17x7.5) and they are just over 18 lbs.

Thanks! And I was thinking of going to 235's, so I appreciate the suggestion. And I like those wheels.
