Konig Heliums question

For all those who have the heliums, (especially the 15's) do you notice better mileage in the city because they are so light?

quick question, how much do they weigh? Stock is almost 20lbs....
I'm not using 15's but 16's but the rims I have are lighter than stock. Didnt notice better gas milleage. I guess in theory it should be better on milleage.... might get better milleage if you get a tire size with an overall diameter that is larger than stock.... yielding taller gearing, but slower acceleration.

You're not going to notice a significant difference.
