How much do these wheels weigh?
I searched, but haven't found anybody else with these rims. 
They are dealer options from a 92 SC400. Can anybody plz tell me what they weigh 
I'm trying to figure out what the new wheels/tires I'm getting need to weigh to keep the same amount (or less) of unsprung weight.

why do you want to keep those stock wheels anyways?
a good set of 18's will weight only slightly more then those.
if you are that serious about tracking your car and unsprung weight then you have other area of the car to improve prior to getting those wheels.
are you trying to autocross your car or something else?

if you want some light weight, strong, and inexpensive wheels look into enkei nt03+m
you can get them in 18x9.5+28. that wheel is about 30% stronger then the RPF01 and weight only marginally more. good looking wheel and definitely track worthy.
with that size of wheel i listed above it wont be "hella flush" like most jdm fan boys like but you will be able to easily put a 255 or even a 265 tire on it and not worry about extensive fender modifications.
i have 18x10+22 and still fit a 255/35 all around with only a fender roll. the nt03+m will sit a bit more inwards. also no issues of shock interference.
if you really serious about reducing weight, especially unsprung, look into 97+ supra aluminum LCA. they are more money but you will have to be the one weighing the cost vs. benefit.

I actually was thinking that since those Stock wheels are BBS and also 16"s they shouldn't weigh that much.

Look very interesting. I'm gonna see if i can find 4 for under $1000

sweet, I'm not a fan of rolling fenders. when I buy rims I want them to bolt on and let me drive off

"My plan calls for some Supra LCA's (weight)" I meant the aluminum ones
