Question 18" Turbo Twist solid vs. hollow spoke weights

Anyone know or have a website that features the weights of Porsche OEM wheels?

I have 18" turbo twist solid spokes now and am looking at a set of turbo twist 18" hollow spokes I can get my hands on cheap. I want to see the weight savings to get an idea if it is worth the time/energy.

Also, I am looking at painting them black since they have soem curb rash needing repair and need to be painted anyway. I'd like to see how that looks if anyone has done it or has a pic of it. I have seen the 17" Boxster S wheels in black and they look good. Just want to do something different as I'll keep both sets of wheels

My 18's came from a 996 narrow body so I had to add 15mm H&R spacers to get them to run properly.

Thanks in advance,
