Drilled rims questions

Drilling your rim

I’m thinking of drilling my rim. I’ve got a 48 hole 24" BX-38 rim on my QU-AX. I want to drill it because it can save some weight and drilled rims look pretty cool, in my opinion. Now, how much weight would I really save? And how much strength would I lose? I do a lot of trials riding on this uni, including sets and drops(Up to a meter, but I’ll probably go bigger later on). Do you think it’s worth the trouble? Are there any good tutorials?
