i don't know what is the "lightest", but wheels like volks te37, or the yoko advan RS, they are pretty darn light for 19s (i read that the RS is about 20-21lb)

One wheel weighs in at just 2.76kg, which works out to be 6.08475844 pounds. Interested in getting a set of these for your car? Expect to pay around $10,000-$12,000 for the set.

The lighter it is the more fragile they are.

One ISF is using some WEDS SA67. I think they weigh less than 18lbs.

Check it out.

My CE28's were 19 & 19.5 lbs respectively in 8.5/9.5 fitment - still the lightest wheel Volk makes.
