If you want to go UBER light...I would give DYMAG a call. They are pretty pricey though...

Click on the link in my signature. Mine are for sale and are custom made for the W211 chassis. It'll be a perfect fit.

CCW makes some light wheels;

BBS also has some light wheels;

And of course as mentioned Dymag wheels... But they are extremely pricey.

I'm sure there are others out there, that's just all I can think of at the moment.

And you must be the lucky fella who got my E63 rear diffuser from Neal. Congrats, and I'll get back to you on those wheel weights.

I've always been partial to my wheels I just posted in the classifieds. Biased opinion I know, but I always liked the look of these wheels on an E55 before I even got mine. Link below.

if you care about weight.. you should also research tires.

you can have a light wheel but with a heavy tire would defeat the purpose.
