370z sport wheels vs. nismo

It's the design of the wheel even with the .5 inch difference the amount of material is less on the Nismo wheel than what is used for the sport rays.

I wasn't questioning why the nismos are lighter than the sports, I was questioning why the weight differential is so much different on front to rears with the nismos compared to the differential of the sports. The width difference between both rims is the same, so i just found that strange..
