Lighter wheels will only make a noticeable difference if you drive 30 feet, stop drive 30 feet, stop and do that all day. Like a mail truck.
If you drive at speed like a normal person, moon caps or aero OEM hub caps are the way to go. Plus they will only be a fraction of the price of a new set of aluminum wheels and a fraction of the price of a used set too.
