They dont weight alot because they are forged and as a matter of fact the GT3 wheels weight more, however I wouldnt put them on you 996 go after market there are plenty of wheels to go for that look much better and weigh less.

Why not checkout tire rack, I found some nice volks on the 997 and they weight around 20lbs for the front and rears.

My neighbor has the 997 lobster wheels on his 996TT cab (silver like yours) and it looks pretty nice.
