You sure about this?
WS6 wheels are around 20lbs, and my 17x9.5 OEWheels Zr1s felt noticeably lighter.

you think the car may feel a little "sluggish" since these are a little heavier than the stock wheels?

This would be completely wrong unless the reproductions are made of lead. My SS wheels weigh about 19lb a piece.
