    Anyone know if it would be worth running a super lightweight rim if I’m trying to improve performance. I’ve done as much as I can bolt-on wise to the truck and now just looking to reduce some weight. Do you guys think it would give the truck a little more get up?

    it'll definitely help, but there's more weight savings in the tire than the rim usually. plus the only truly lightweight option is the volk TE37 which runs $3k+ for 18s and $4.5k for 20s
