I remember when wheel manufacturers all talked about weight now very few of them even list the weights of their wheels on the their websites and trying to get them to tell you is like pulling teeth. I picked up the last set of 21" HRE P45L's that Tire Rack had (for the deal of the year in my opinion) and I was amazed at how light they were for a wheel that size. I am not one for going too big with wheels and I have always felt strong and lightweight is the way to go with wheels so I never go cheap. I usually have at least two sets of wheels for each car (that I plan to drive year round). Handling and road feel is why I own these cars and heavy wheels and tires have a negative effect on that so for me at least looks come third on my list when I buy wheels.
