Lightest 16" rim?

Looking for lightest 16" wheel available (that still looks good). The 16" Black SSR rims at the Tirerack look great and weigh a mere 11.5 pounds a piece, but are they the lightest? Price isnt THAT big a deal, i want quality and performance. By the way, what do the stock 15" Fit Sport rims weigh? Ive heard everything from 16 to 18 pounds a piece, if so then im probably leaning on the SSRs, simply because 1 inch larger AND it weighs about 5 to 6lbs less sounds great to me. If anyone knows of anything lighter and nice looking please let me know.

You can check out WHEELWEIGHTS.NET to see a good list of weights for wheels. They list SSR Type-R wheels at 11.5lb in 16x7 size and SSR competitions at 11lb in 16x7, those are some of the lightest 16 inch wheels available.

Wheelweights shows 16x7 RPF1 as 13.5 pounds, not that light.
