Really, search and ye shall receive. But from corner scales 5 weeks ago:

IX SE BBS - 17.4lbs
255/40/17 NT05 tire - 25.5lbs
Total - 42.9lbs

After valvestem + weights from balancing - 43lbs even

This is about as light as you are going to get without spending big $$. Keep an eye on the tire weight, as you can see tires are heavier and it's easier to save weight there. You can shave 4-5lbs per corner via tires and not spend a dime more than the heavy ones (and often times as in the case of the NT05 they are cheaper to boot).
