Wheels and tires are one of the main things that add alot of weight to a vehicle. I do agree that they look great, but I would likely just run 40 series on the back and truggy on the front. You can drop a pound or more just by swapping wheels/tires.
I would also run lighter batts, and just have 2 sets if I wanted longer runtime. With the 40c lipos I am sure that 4000mah or slightly less will do.
