Not a concern of mine. Base 370z + Sports package for me

WHEEL WEIGHTS:

I did some checking and indeed the factory Rays are claimed to be VERY VERY light. Speculation is in the range of 20% lighter than the NISMO wheels that were on the 2007 NISMO. That's simply incredible. Without spending a fortune on wheels (or going to a smaller diameter which is not legal in the B Stock class that I'm talking about), you'd be hard pressed to drop more than 1lb per corner from wheel weight. I found the Enki RP03 in factory sizes that will be about 1lb/wheel lighter for about $380/wheel. If you want to drop a significant ammount of weight (3-4lbs) per wheel then you would need to go with some custom forgline or ccw wheels ($1500~/wheel).

Personally I will be using the stock wheels for autox (with Hoosiers on them), and a set of custom wheels for the street (with Toyo T1S's on them) because the stock wheels are just so damn light.
