rec/recoil spinning guide weights anyone?

Can anyone tell me the weights of the recoil spinning guides in grams or grains...particularly sizes 40, 25, 16, 10, and 8?

I will admit I've seen some postings as to the weight of the #8 and tip, but the bigger guide weight might be important... because the guides are not as long as lowrider guides, I'll need to go up in size on some of the recoils near the butt end to prevent cast reducing line slap on the rod... I'm wondering if Fuji T-atsg guide weights would be competative in that instance.

Also, what ring size(s) is/are the spinning tips? I see the rod sizes for the tips on the manufacturer's site, that's not what I'm talking about.... I need ring sizes.

Checking in briefly and see your post.

Here's part of the info you need:

REC RECOIL SPIN Size 30=2.70g, Size 25=2.15g, Size 20=1.55g, size 6 - .158" ID. 0.07 grams.

Based on the T-LVSG, my guess is that the TATSG is closer to 4 grams in size 30. (1 ounce =28.4 grams)
