They only have a few models and the only one I like is the Subzero.

Volks and Racing Hart make the lightest wheels.
Depending on offset and width the 16' TE37 weigh in around 10.9-11.2 lbs.
That is what i run on my car.
 
What size do you plan to get? There are more companies making lighter wheels than there used to be. Depending on what size you want, there will be a few choices. Then on the other hand there may be none. But list the size you want.
 
Centerline makes a very light wheel too. The 19" weighs 15 lbs and the 17" is 13.51 lbs. They're forged and pretty inexpensive when compared to say volk and advan.
 
What's your budget? That has a big affect on your choices.

Racing Hart wheels aren't that light. Very nice, strong wheels, but only average in weight. Except for the CP-10's or something like that.

SSR Competitions are very light and a few DSMracers use them. I have heard they have soft lips and bend easily. I think they look cool though.

17X7 weighs 12.9 lbs
18X8 weighs 16.0 lbs
