I doubt it would be worth it for stuff like a tailshaft. You wouldn't be able to shave off a great deal of mass, and most of the mass is close to the centre of rotation anyway. This is the sort of thing you'd do on a big-dollar race car when you're chasing the last few poofteenths; you'd never notice it on the street.
Lighter rims can be a good thing, but there's only so far you can go before they become too flimsy for regular street use (ie pothole = bent rim).
