I’m pretty skeptical of the idea that software is limiting the rate of acceleration, simply because that would be an odd choice. However, it is possible that some people are *traction* limited up to a pretty high speed out of the 0-60mph, at which point not much time is left for less mass to help, and at which point acceleration rates are lower so less mass wouldn’t matter so much anyway.

Also some people have measured a tenth of improvement in 0-60 from light, forged wheels. Of course any experiment needs to carefully control for tire compound, width, and pressure to make sure traction hasn’t changed.

But yeah don’t expect noticeable difference in anything at all from lighter wheels on a car this heavy and powerful. There is always placebo effects with human perceptions and these things but the objective differences will be really tiny.
