Buying New Wheels, Recommendations Needed

Hey guys, ya i know its another wheel thread but i can't make a decision right now. Right now i'm looking at various Soul wheels and the Neuvation M28x Aero. I'm mainly looking to save some weight over the Bontrager bricks i have now, Bontragers weigh in at 2226 grams for the pair. Now my question is do i go for something lighter or something a bit heavier with more aero. I really love the way the Soul S4.0's look due to the deep profile, although for pretty much the same price i can get some Soul 2.0 low profiles that weigh in at only 1330 grams for the pair. 4.0's weigh in at 1790 grams. The Neuvations are about the same weight as the 4.0's. I'm a light guy at only 145 lbs so wheel strength isn't too high on my list as i think all of these should more than accommodate me. Now should i go for the lightest possible or heavier with more aero. As far as bang for the buck i don't think i can beat the Neuvations.

All of these will be upgrades from my Bontrager wheels so i'm gonna see benefits in weight alone, just can't decide which one to pull the trigger on. Thanks
