but most important thing to know is that lighter is better for performance, but not comfort. heavier wheels usually absorb the bumps more. but its a 370z so Im sure comfort isnt the top of your list. comparing 2 lbs per wheels is almost like splitting hairs though. but if its like 3 lbs per wheel and over, then most likely you'll notice it
