I saw a post on the nissan leaf forum where a guy got some ultra light weight racing wheels for his leaf.
New they were over $600 each, he got them second hand for cheap. These wheels where half the weight or about 10 pounds lighter than the stock wheels.
Only increased range by 2%.
You get more range than that just by going with a good LRR tire.
