Thinking about buying HRE forged wheels, 20" only.

I was told unsprung weight does not apply to EVs. Is that true?

Will I have a better mileage with forged wheels than my standard 20'' OE?

I had HRE P101 on my Model S. You could fee subtle influence of their much lower masses in driving dynamics. However, consumption rates are dependent on many factors. If you change a closed wheel design to an open fan, you compensate the savings to the negative side. Which HRE model are you looking at?
