Out off all the rims made for the ranger including stock and aftermarket, anybody know the lightest atleast 15" rim? I currently have heavy steel rims and Im thinking of getting rid of them infavor of lighter rims hopefully to save on gas but also to change the look of my truck,, thanks mucho,,

changing the look I can understand... but if you think a new rim's gonna help out at the pump, I'm pretty sure you'll end up being disappointed. Now if they could make a lighter TIRE... then maybe...
