I would argue that there are more important things to change, including things that can be changed much more quickly. As an experiment, try running some 3-spoke ali rims versus some normal ali rims. Only change the fronts. If you have your kart pretty weill balanced already you will notice a difference. Whether that difference is significant and how it can be used to your advantage is something for you to decide, but don't be fooled into thinking it being faster/slower on your current setup will equate to it being faster/slower when optimally setup or even faster/slower in all conditions.
