I am going the other way, I will try to put on my Forged 17 with stock 215/55 rubber next time, that's 8lb ligher than my PIAA set-up per corner. Im thinking that'll be another 0.2" right there, no need for drag rubber for the AWD.
I am just still so paranoid about the AFR. My WOT AFR is still seems to be in the 12/13 area. Won't be running another 1/4 mile until I get a Dyno & make sure everything is where it should be. Can't afford to ca-boom my daily driver.

A car the weight of a G with over 400 whp better be in the 12's. My portly (4200 lbs without driver) Charger SRT8 425 crank hp car, did 13.1 first time at the track. Rear tires are only 255's. And SRT8's (except for AWD Jeep) don't do well in the 60' due to tall (3.08) gearing. High 1.9's or 2.0's are typical. I would expect a lighter car with more whp to be well into the 12's no problem.

Neal,
I got these Roja Forged wheels, only 15lb each, didn't really get to use them yet. the tire is the 2005 G35x OEM 215/55 17 stock rubber, had about 3-500 miles. They fit my BBK. (With spacer same as my PIAA).
They are 17x7 42 off set.
I am thinking selling it after this spring, (I got them to help me getting into 12s) , but I need to keep one as full size spare as the donut can't fit the BBK. I may also need to keep it for inspection use, one place won't give me sticker with the PIAA.

also I am afraid not able to pass inspection with the plus size PIAA, so tough call.

There is no problem launching with the 225 all season, thanks to the AWD.
I shifted early at: 5000, 6000, 6000 to avoid hitting rev limitor.
There are room left for shifting, So I'll try 5500, 6000, 6300 next time.
The car feels like a rocket, especially the launch is awsome!
Besides S/C, only other performance mods are sports suspension, light weight BBK & Stillen true dual.
As soon as Epping NH drag strip open on April 1, I'll head down there for some slips. Last year just about every car out there beat me (I was running 14.8-14.9 all day), It's time for revenge!
Just for reference, my best G-timer run before S/C was 14.4, max hp 230 whp, max speed 95 mph, also done in cold winter. The HKS S/C improved ~1.5" for the quarter mile.
