Q: Do lighter forged wheels actually change how the car feels?
Yes. Cutting unsprung and rotating weight lets the suspension react faster over bumps and can make steering feel more immediate, and it eases the load on brakes and the drivetrain. On a heavy Model X the effect is subtle rather than transformative, but a forged wheel starting from 24.77 pounds is working in the right direction compared with a heavier cast alternative.
