+ 1 on the wheels. If staying 17" it is hard to beat the Enkei RPF1's. Similar design to the 10th anniversary wheels, and they are a solid 12-15 pounds lighter per wheel than just about every replica wheel sold on AM/Lethal/CJ/etc. You can get them on TireRack in 17x9/17x10 for our cars. Save you a good 50-60 pounds of unsprung weight right there.

Awesome .... Thank youThis was over in the Terminator FAQ
theyre also available in 18x10.5 +15, though theyll weigh about 1.75"lbs more per wheel. the 18x9s are right at a pound heavier than their 17" counterparts.
I need to look into what that's for.good info guys, also I've read that you can remove the "dog bone" under the rear differential I'm not sure if that is the same thing as the mott bar listed above. I've heard it can remove 8-10lbs.
