i just bought 5zigen fno1rc 17x9 +35 in front weighs 17.5 lbs and
17x10 +25 in rear weighs 18lbs clears brembos and suspension fine
with no adjustments to suspension needed or spacers-very happy with
purchase and were dirt cheap at edgeracing.com-$159 each for front
wheels and $215.00 each for rear wheels

My stock 07 18's were 26lbs each, and my new BBS Forged RE's are 20lbs each. 6lbs per corner drop is significant.

I put 57f gramlights on. They are close to 17 lbs and are 18"s. If you want to really save weight get 17" rims that are lightweight.

It depends which size P45R you get. The 17x9.5 P45R's are 20lbs. The 18x9.5 P45R size that is commonly seen on 350z's is 23lbs.
