Are you suggesting that you would lose power from changing the wheels on your car?

Do you think that you would lose power because the wheels are heavier?

My vote is to scrap both those options and get yourself some EVO X GSR wheels

I used to run 18x8 MB Weapons. It's a nice wheel. IIRC, the 18x8 rims weighed 21-22lbs each, so not super heavy, but definitely heavier than the BBS wheels. My vote is for the MB's ... as said above stock is still stock.
