I spent a few weeks on wheels that were 5lbs less than stock. Definite improvement in steering response. They were 30 offset with stock tire sizes. Immediately felt a big difference after putting them on... and felt it going back to heavy g35 18s again and I really want to get down to a 20-21ish lbs wheel again. The car was just more, errrr, nimble....
I couldnt tell any diff in acceleration tho.
I'm considering P45Rs. They would be a slight improvement over stock. I'm of the fence about the fronts. p45F isnt a look I like. and the P45R is just a tad too much for the front :/ although they rock from the side angle.
