Default Stock VS Aftermarket Wheels

I have two questions:

Does anyone know the size of the stock JK Rubicon 17" Wheels?

Would there be a significant weight difference between running aftermarket wheels vs stock wheels with wheel spacers?

I am currently running stock 17" wheels with Spidertrax wheel spacers and I am wondering if I can get less rotating weight by switching to an aftermarket 17" wheel. I am trying to get more power out of my 4.10's with 35's.

Thanks
Jeff

I would think billet wheels would. I know I have billets wheels on my Camaro and they are very light.
