The lightest AMG wheel?

Does anybody have an information as to which AMG wheel is the lightest? The stock monoblock AMG wheel for the CLK 55 is around 27 for rear and 24 at the back. This is considered heavy for a 17 inch wheel.

I think all ///AMG wheels are heavy, with the monoblock 17 being one of the lightest. I dont know that they make a wheel that is going to be any lighter than what you have. if you want a light wheel, another brand will probably be the only option...

the new E55 (w211) will have some special light wheels. they are made of two materials, sorry i have no scanner avalible to show you the illustration of the "internal brochures". only the cover of the new double-spoke wheel will be aluminium, the core is made of something lighter. will look for it tomorrow.
