The heaviest item in your trunk by far is your full sized spare. Get that out before you start saving 1lb here and there with the mats! If you're driving pretty much locally you should be fine, or switch to a doughnut spare/carry fix a flat if you're worried about it. I used to keep my spare in the garage except for going on long highway trips, I'd toss it in the trunk.
