Default Lightest 15" ever?

Anyone know what wheel claims the lightest weight in 15", specifically in 5x114.3 +40-45 ? I'm looking to shoe my AWD Talon TSi in some super lightweight wheels and I'm looking for options.

Im think either the Slipstreams or Kosei K1 but I stand to be corrected.

Spoon SW388
15" = 8.5 lbs

(scroll to bottom, fourth size down)

...however at $400-$500 per wheel, the cost can be somewhat prohibitive.

How wide? The Racing Hart CP-035R's are 7.9 lbs in 15x6.

Volk CE28Ns are somewhere in the 7 or 8lb range. The 14x5.5 ones are <7 lbs

I'm sure you can get some custom race wheels in that range as well (Panasport, BBS, Kodiak etc), but they won't be strong enough for the street.
