Lightweight bullets?

Lightweight bullets?
Anyone know of any? I found some enkei rims that weigh 15.5lbs, which is awesome compared to our stock weight of around 25lbs. But nothing looks quite cool like bullit/torque thrust rims.
Anyone know of any? Looking for 17x8 stock size... Im sure I saw some before for like $230 a rimbut can't find them now.

Basically I want lightweight rims, and I prefer factory size so I can just switch my pirellis over... And since bigger size means more weight.

My 28" dia M&H DR's in 275/50-17 on 17x9" replica Bullitts weigh less than the stock 17x8" Bullitt/Pirelli combo. The difference is about 3 lbs, which is due to the DR being lighter than the street radial. I drove all summer on my DR's. Just something for your consideration.

Just a quick thought on size - if you stick to 17" you will not be able to upgrade to a "big brake" kit in the future. You need 18" to do that. Don't know if that matters to you but figured it might since, being concerned about unsprung weight, it seems you are performance oriented. I know there are several 18" lightweight rims available that are in the 16lb area, just don't have the list in front of me right now (at work).

ive been looking since when i posted earlier and i cant seem to find any light bullitts but there are plenty lightweight 17s out there, and some of them can get similar to the bullitts round 5 spoke design
