The weight difference would then be 397.5g for a wheel, or 795g for both wheels (~1.75lbs weight savings).

The reason why I wanted to focus on the wheels is, well I added the dropper post and sus. fork to make my fat bike a better trail MTB. The bars are a comfort thing, however the tires and the rotational weight are the things that I really wanted to target. The main thing I was concerned with was seeing how much rotational weight could I shed, and how much weight would be significant enough to warrant the money required to make the tires lighter?
