finding wheel weights?

i'm trying to find some acurate weights for wheels. I'm after light weight more than looks but within reason. buddyclub QF wheels are dam light 6.7kg for 18x9 but I don't think you can get the right offset.
anyone have weights for the following?

Volk 18x8.5
CE28N
Te37

prodrive
gc-07c (I have heard these are around 6.9kg and have it stamped on the rim)


here's a site that seems to have some corect info

Check out the SSR competition wheels from tirerack.com...they are only 16.8 pounds and i think they look nice.

thanks guys I'll have a look back through those lists but I don't think the sizes are listed for the wheels i'm interested in.

I'm a bit fussy because I have found by increasing the rim size 1" you can increase the weight by over 2.2 pounds which is a lot IMO.

if you think 16 pounds is light check the buddy club 14.7 for 18x9"! they aren't as expensive as volks (probably not as desirable). I like some of the SSR rims but they have some very large rims and funny offsets probably to suit GTR's.
