My drive is 5.5 miles (one way) and 22 stop lights. Posted speed is never above 35. So I'm concentrating on weight and rotating weight.
I bought some 13inch Honda VX rims (Craiglist) and then put 155/80/13 on them. I lost 6 lbs per corner.
If I commuted on interstate with an average speed at 55 then I would go with Aero mods.

Currently getting 40mpg on my commute in 1.5L 97 Mazda Protoge.
