Yep, It's tricky. There are loads of bargain mountain bike rims out there, but almost always over 500g each. You need to spend a little to get something a bit more road orientated and nearer 400g. Hard to argue when they're £10 each though.
Saving weight with spokes is a mugs game unless you're going mega weeny though.
