Wow. Imagine what kind of impact that has on your acceleration and braking.
Then imagine the impact they have on my eyes. Ugh, chrome.

Actually, I bet the pegs weight more with tires. The tire is going to weigh more than your wheel. Even if it is exactly the same, you are still under peg weight.

Jason says you're wrong. He says that his pegs with tires weighed 48.4

Heico Volution V's weigh 29 lbs according to Heico - doubt you could tell the difference between those and Pegs.
They look so good I think I'd be willing to make the sacrifice too
The lightest 225/35/18 tire (Toyo T1R) is about 20.5 lbs If I recall Correctly
SO, 18" Peg @27.5lbs + 225/35/18 tire @ 20.5 lbs = 48lbs
with different tires, you might add ~1-2 lbs. Not light by any means but not crazy heavy

17" VST's or 17" BBS RGRs would be some of the lightest.
Centerline technically might be the winner though. Too bad they only make them now in a 7" width and a polished or chrome finish
