next time you need tires get as narrow of tires as you can for those rims, you might also see what you can get for narrower or lighter weight rims from a salvage yard, of course ally rims are not always lighter so bring a simple hanging scale, or read up on the specs.
the under side of that vehicle is the biggest air drag, make it smooth and make your air dam hang down as much as possible, flat rubber belting, or convayer belting has been used by someone on here, it flex's if you hit something.
synthetic fluids all the way.
you have a common American engine, hot rod catalogs have pages of electric water pumps, electric radiator fans, air intake add ons that smooth the air flow, of course not every race designed part improves mileage or lasts as long as the stock part, so keep that in mind before buying.
