I take the lack of replies as a no.
Stock wheel weight
Is there anyone that knows the actual weight of the stock rim?

find out the weight of the tire on your wheel, take the wheel off and weigh it. then use the difference as the wheel weight.
I know how, I would have thought it would be in some specs somewhere.
at www.wheelspecs.com, you can find the weight for just about any aftermarket wheel, but not OEM....comparing a cast aluminum painted or polished 17" wheel would get you close - they're fairly lightweight, I've had them on and off several times.
They're cast, not forged?
I'm sure they're cast, just looking at the roughness on the back side - if they were forged, also, they'd weigh 11-12 lbs, and I think they're closer to 18-20.
Sorry Jim, but the wheels are FORGED, per Saturn. 
Cool, learn something new every day! So it's an 11-14 lb wheel, and there's not much, short of a Volk or SSR that'll be lighter....
For example...using a Talon for more wheel choices:
O.Z. Superleggera
Finish: Bright Silver Paint
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
17x7 $280 each
** Lightweight: 15.9lbs. **
Shuk WR1
Finish: Bright Satin w/Polished Lip
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
17x7.5 $229 each
** Lightweight: 18.5lbs. **
SSR Competition
Finish: Anthracite w/Mach Lip
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
17x7.5 $389 each
** Lightweight: 13.6lbs. **
SSR GT1
Finish: Bright Silver Paint
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
17x7.5 $299 each
** Lightweight: 17.5lbs. **
