Rear seats
Parcel shelf
6x9s or big subs
Sound deadening
carpet
rear Seat belts

Them are the freebies for weight loss. If you don't mind a bare interior that is.

Then it gets expensive, Carbon fibre boot, roofskin, bonnet.

Wont see much difference between changing wheels. Unless you get some Pro 1.2s, or the light c5 steelies.

Even then, its not going to give 10bhp.
