When I was looking at a few wheels [most particularily Volks], I found the Volk CE28N model to be the lightest forged, monoblock, aluminum, so that is what I went with. If memory serves me right, my 18x8.5 CE28N weighed in right around 16 lbs.

i have the 350z rays track edition wheels. they are pretty light being that they are forged. they are 18 x 8 and 18x 8.5 and they are made in the same factory as volks. you can find them pretty easy on my350z under the classified's. i found mine with tires for $1000 that included tps sensor that i might be selling.

Dollar for dollar, nothing beats the Enkei RPF1's in weight. The SSR GT-2s are lighter but also cost $150 more per wheel.
If money is no object (excluding mags), then Volk CE28Ns.
