15 pounds is stock, typically forged multipiece 18s start at about 20 pounds <my Blitzs are like 21 front 24 rear> But keep in mind you're saving some weight on the tires ussually, but it depends, they're still heavy especially when they're REAL wide.

My 18" LE37Ts doen't weigh anywhere near 20 pounds. More like 16.
21K guy, PM or do a search for ARDT2. His name's Rishie and he ownes a wheel/suspension shop. He'll can tell you anything you need to know about RX7 wheel fitment/weight. He's also a really nice guy with a ton of connections and can probably get you a deal on whatever wheel your thinking about.

LOL, the wheel types you listed range in weight from like 16-25 lbs... you need to be a little more specific. If you are concerned with weight, a 1-piece forged or squeeze-cast wheel is your best option (most SSR wheels, Volk LE37, Volk CE28N, etc.).
