A word of warning: I've cut about 10% of my weight (200lbs). With the tires aired up, the sprung to unsprung weight ratio can make for a bumpy ride. My advice is to start with the suspension, brakes, wheels, etc, then move in.
The benefit to all of this is brisker acceleration without using more fuel. In congested areas where hypermiling can create tailgating issues, this is useful.
If you're a heavy p&g'r, this can hurt you also though (shorter cycle times). I drive rolling hills, so this is less of an issue (forced p&g), since I can hold my speed more steady.
