Since the 5 x 114.3mm bolt pattern is known as a "luxury" bolt pattern, I doubt you'd find something "lightweight" from any of the domestic cars.
Most of the 5-lug domestic wheels are either wrong bolt pattern or from super heavy cars that don't give a rip about weight.

GM Camaro and Corvette patterns are 5 x 4.75", so it doesn't fit our 5 x 4.5" pattern.
Pontiac makes a stupid 5 x 115mm (who the f*ck makes a one-off pattern like that???).
Most of the (newer) Ford Mustang wheels are the right bolt pattern, but I would never consider them "light".

It's your best bet to find some Mazda ones.
Like need_RX7 already mentioned, the vert 15" wheels are light, but you're stuck with the 15" x 6.0" size.
If you can find some Kouki Turbo II / GTUs wheels, those are 16" x 7.0", and weight significantly lighter than the Zenki Turbo II wheels in the same specs.
