Q: Why do lighter wheels matter on a heavy car like the Model X?

Wheels are unsprung and rotating mass, so cutting weight there helps more than trimming it elsewhere. On a heavy Model S or Model X, lighter forged wheels can improve how quickly the suspension reacts, sharpen steering response, and reduce the rotating inertia the motors spin up. That is the case UP makes for a forged wheel over a heavier cast one.
