DMF is a big GM mistake..
..I put flywheel from Vectra A 2.5 V6 (Calibra/Vectra A and B V6) with clutch of course. This setup is not so light. My flywheel weight abaut 1,4 kg less then DMF.
..I'm very satisfied..

..First Omega V6 from beginning production in 1994 had such a flywheel and clutch kits..

My question was rather about lightening a solid wheel. I would do it if changing DMF to a solid one. It weights ca 15kg but it can be easily dropped to 7-8kg which is much better.

..I know that. But what for?

This is flywheel from 20XE - very light (6,5kg):


..And this is flywheel from 25XE after weight loss (9,5kg):


..Setup which I have, I use for normal everyday driving

I’m bit surprised with your answer. I thought that you know what a lightened wheel gives and you also know the difference in driving.
Standard weight of the V6 wheel is around 15kg and from memory Irmscher version was fitted with 7 or 8kg wheels.  This gives much better engine response when revved. I agree that ultra light ones (4-5kg) are not good for everyday driving, but you could feel a massive difference by just dropping 4-6kg. It would also not affect day to day driving. 
I wish my old Vectra would rev like this with a bog standard wheel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s58m6NhyPp4&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uBNtTtC79M
