Help with wheels

So I want to get some wheels that are as light as possible and somewhere in the 9 to 10" wide range. These are perfect other than the fact that they're hideous:

Enkei Racing RPF1 Bright Silver Paint

Can somebody help me out with some of the more popular wheel options for a Z32? I'm leaning towards 18x9 O.Z. superleggeras. Pity you can only get the graphite color in 18x8

Also, how much do the 16x8.5 stock rear TT Wheels weigh? The only thing I can find is 16 lbs for the 7.5 NA wheels.

Update: I think they look hell stand alone but they actually look decent on the 300.

But hey, if you can find the ones you're looking for, what does it matter what site they're from? And as for the wheel styles on Z32's, I find thicker and fewer spokes really suits them. Specifically nice beefy 5 spoke with a bit of a lip.
