    I’m currently running FN 18’s, what are some of the lightest 18” wheels? Thinking of changing wheels when I need tires and would like to go lighter if possible to save a tiny bit of fuel

    I wouldn’t for just that. I went to a P rated tire from an LT tire, same size 10lb per tire savings. Zero affect on mpg.

    this actually won’t save money, as he would be picking up too many chicks

    Yeah, I just kinda did it on a whim, but with that being the thumbnail I may have inadvertently hijacked the thread from the get go. Sorry, @Jmccracken1214 :sorry: I couldn't resist the joke.

    FNs are some of the lightest 18" wheels. You would have to spend $$$ to get Volks to save any significant amount of weight, but just as @Hbjeff says, it won't have an impact on mpgs.
