Hey bro, don't get too crazy. Remember, only lightweight bolts on the front liscense plate. We need the "heavy" bolts out back in order to aid in traction

Who in there right mind would give up a nice full set of heavy nuts for some light nuts, its all about the nuts.


Better yet if you want to shed extra rotating mass just take the wheels off, duhhhh.
