Please list the various lightweight (relatively) wheels available for the 05. I know Weld forged wheels are pretty light. I plan on upsizing to 18 or 19 inch and 10 inch wide rears when i get my stang. I want to minimize the increase in unsprung weight and rolling mass but I don't want to spend $600 a wheel either.

Jim,

you may want to check out
www.tirerack.com
when you do a check for 2005 stang, several wheels will come up in various sizes. the nice thing about the tirerack is that in its description of the wheel, it tells the wheel weight. I believe I read that our stock wheels weigh about 27 lbs each.
