Steelies or Alloys?

So its time for tires, I may just go with the originals but that's another story.

But my questions is should I keep the stock 15" steel wheels and put smooth hubcaps on or get a lighter aftermarket alloy wheel that wouldn't be smooth?

Any idea what would give me the better MPG?

Seems like a lighter wheel would be better because the engine would have less load to go a given speed.
