Drag-only 17's?

Where should I look for ultra light-weight 17's? I know 17's are not ideal, but I already have dr's in this size so I dont want to have to buy new 16" dr's.

How much do the stock 17's weigh, ~ 25lbs? Would going to a 17lb wheel only for the fronts be worth the investment? I def would only get them for the fronts, probably keep the stock ones for the winter, and maybe get some 18's for the warm months. Yeah, I have an affinity for wheels. I have 3 sets for my mustang also. lol

edit: here's a quick list I found. Do any of these tend to be cheaper than the Rota's? The rota's are not expensive (~$110/piece), but they arent the lightest either.

The Centerline RPMs in 17" are only 14 lbs...but they are a little more $$ than the Rotas.
