If you dont mind spending the coin, get Volks. 15" ce28s are about 9.5lbs per wheel. With a 24.5 slick, you are looking at about 26lbs per wheel (where stock is about 50 per).

Motegi traklite is 10.6 a wheel in the 15x6.5 (or 7, cant remember what we get). The centerline convo pro in a 15x7 is light as well.

Im running Slipstreams on mine with spacers. You will need to grind down your calipers a little to fit those rims.

I originally wanted traklites in a 15", but their impossible to find.

EDIT: I forgot to add that the Volks do not require spacers in the front or rear, and no grinding of the caliper is necessary.
