Default Rim Weights

Does anyone know where I can find the rim weights for Maxxis and Douglas? I've Googled Maxxis and can only find their tire site. As for Douglas they don't seem to list the weight anywhere.

Yeah, I guess I could have been more specific in my post.

TractorPacker - Thanks for the tip. I'll check out the site. I don't know why they don't make this info readily available.

I've called those Mfgr's directly and got mixed or flexible responses. from them: IE: not an exact weight.. "4-1/2 to 5 Lbs" (not actual numbers) I was trying to find exact weight as I wanted to keep the lightest tire wheel combo I could so as to have less rotating mass (weight) to get the fastest excelleration..
