ive been doing research on rims for a while and at first was going to cheap out and buy 5 spoke sportmax rims but now im really considering sacrificing both arms and legs for a good set
haha but anyways the point is what rims are the lightest you know of that are good quality and at the same time good looking is always a plus. i found my top 2 trd japan sports t3 in bronze which weigh approx 7.5 kg!!

CCW classics will be light and clear the TT brakes.
My 10" wide CCW drag rears with ET street tires on them are only 34lbs each

The bigger the rims the more they weigh. As mentioned, forged wheels tend to be lighter, as well will 2 or 3 peice wheels.
i.e. My 3 peice forged work wheels are light for 20's bur heavy compared to other wheels. The 20 x 10 rears are 22lbs without tires. On the other hand I had a set of cheap 18" Konigs that weighed 23lbs. If you want light get 17" forged wheels, they should be 15lbs and lighter, I had a set of 17" that were only 11lbs each.
What size Wheel are you looking for?
Also a huge consideration should be tires if weight is important to you. BFG are Heavy! Continentals are light! That weight will be worse than the wheel weight since its is farther out than the wheel.
