17" wheels are in the range 16-22lbs per wheel not including the tyre.

that's kind of a wide range. How many different 17" wheels were there? 16lbs also seems really light...

I have not weighed the OEM LS430 wheels so I have no idea what they weigh. I would imagine towards the heavier end of the range.
The range I stated is for all 7.5jx17 wheels, not just Lexus LS430 OEM wheels.
You can buy 7.5Jx17 aftermarket wheels as light as 6.35Kg (14lbs).
These weights are JUST the wheel, no tyre, no valve.

Well if it is this rim then it weighs 26lbs 6.4oz as measured with my postal scale.

Just had a set of these powder coated and will be getting them mounted tomorrow...
