Any weight you can drop from tires, tubes (tubeless?), rims, spokes, hubs, will make the most difference.
Tubeless won't necessarily save any weight, by the tike you add up the sealant. But tubeless reduces rolling resistance, a lot. And it allows you to run lower pressures which means better traction. Better traction=faster. And, in my experience, the same tire ran tubeless feels more supple than it does with tubes.
I think the OP is already running tubeless, though.
