I notice that my worst fuel economy by far is when accelerating from a stop, I drive 40+ miles a day to work and 37 of those are on the freeway. My average mileage plummets when I start the vehicle and get the vehicle moving and slowly creeps back up as I'm cruising with very little gas and brake application. I figure lighter wheels will decrease the moment of inertia therefore allowing me to get up to speed with less energy expended. I also figure that aerodynamic drag on the whole vehicle will slow the vehicle down significantly more than and difference in rotational momentum.
keep typing, I'm liking the opinions/ ideas
