If you want cheap and light:

Rota Slipstream 15x6.5", about 12 pounds, around $100/ea.

Tires depend on what you want to do with it. I run BFG KDW2's for street and occasional track use, with a set of Hoosier DR's for the drag strip. Plenty ofpeople run Azenis's too, they are not as good for street, but they are cheap and I hear they are good for the track.

Here's a pic of a Slipstream in black:
