721s and 521s are great. I tried narrow (517) but they keep going out of true. And only about 100g lighter. Depends on your style, but for many people, that doesn't mean anything.
Crazy fast/light/nimble players might notice something like that, but most people wouldn't. And most people use heavy tyres and tubes and hence minimise the benefits of lightness.
