Default Best lightweight wheels

I have a '94 'Lude on stock wheels. I was wondering if y'all could give me the top 3 or 4 lightweight wheels. I also want them to be dependable. Thanks!

Gram Lights are also some good lightweight rims, which I believe are also made by Volk Racing.

check this guys list out:
http://www.wheelweights.net/
If I could get my hands on a set, or bring myself to buy another set of wheels, I'd go for the 16x8" fd rx-7 wheels (~16lbs).
(edit - just realized you have a 94, so these 5 luggers won't work for application unless you have a conversion.)

How wide are the ITR rims? They're probably not any wider than stock (6.5"); adventually this should matter in wheel selection.
