I remember reading in another thread here, months ago, that someone reduced their rear tire/wheel/rotor combo weight and it showed up as an increase on the dyno. I don't remember the specifics. It could have been a reduction in weight of any of the three.

If this is true then I would love to see the charts, and see the weight drop vs. the increase.

If a lighter weight driveshaft reduces hp loss to the road, then it does seem that lighter weight wheels, tires, and/or rotors would do the same.
