JUICEDGSR95 is an unknown quantity at this point
For every one pound you take off of your cars rotating mass (wheels, brakes, drive shafts, flywheels, etc.) is equal to removing nine pounds of weight off your car. - Turbo Magazine

So with this said, if you go from stock GSR wheels at 16lbs, to lightweight Rota wheels, say 12lbs, that would save you an equivelent of 144lbs? sounds crazy but maybe its true.

When installing larger diameter wheels, you 'normaly' put on lower profile tires, therefore 'usually' you will have the same overall diameter.
