WHEEL WEIGHTS?!? and performance?

I have looked around, but can't seem to find the exact wheel weight of the OEM 18"x7.5" wheels...these are the stock wheels on my 05' G35 Sport Sedan. Just curious as to how these weighed compared to the Z wheels. Does anyone also know how much wheel weight might affect performance?

Thanks. Ya i've seen that post before. I was referring to the G35 Sedan wheels that look the same as the ones in the link below, but are rather 18" instead of 19". Never been able to find the exact weight of the 18s.

When referring to performance, I was hoping someone may know, for instance, how 26lb wheels affect acceleration compared to say 20lb wheels?
