I never weighed mine but here is a thread where the guy I was talking about did. Not sure if his numbers are accurate.

And I'm suure you knew but you need drums for a 15 to clear out back or grind the heck out of the caliipers

I realize the pics below are 5 lug, but I can give some info regarding wheel size and backspace. These are bogarts. Rears are 15x10 with 6.5" backspace and they tucked nicely. These same wheels can be had in 6 lug I believe. Just need to talk to Rich.

Can't help you with the awd question. But I'd think common sense would be that the front and rear tire needs to be the same diameter.

Why would they need to be the same diameter? 15/17 combo is extremely common.
