Default (Current) Wheel Weights?

I'm looking to shop for some new wheels, so I figured I might as well take weight savings into the considerations! Is there a thread I’m missing that outlines weights for different popular wheel options, or has anyone done this research on their own?

If not, feel free to drop some names on your favourite wheels, and I’ll go hunt down the weights!
