What does shedding a pound of weight equal to in HP gain?

no HP gaing here, just less weight. I believe 1 pound loss on the wheel is equivalent to 8 pounds off the car weight. so if you have 4 wheels, wheighing 1 pound less each, then you are saving about 32 pounds. it is good, but something this small you won't feel. if you shave off 3 pounds or more off of each wheel, then you are talking at least 100 pounds, which will be noticable.

Anyone know how much the wheel itself is for the 17" maxima wheels?
The closest I could find was the 17" sentra SE-r at 24 lbs on http://www.wheelweights.net/
If not, how much does the 17" craptenza weigh ?

GLE wheels are 25 pounds I believe, tires are 24. I weighed my tire/rim combo and looked up tire weights

Is there an updated site that lists all the current brands of tires, wheels and gives their weight that anyone know's of? I'm trying to get slim.

Thanks!! Much appreciated. That means if I were to change to a 18-20 lb 17" wheel it would make a considerable difference.
