Ultralite wheels question.

I've always wondered, are Ultralite wheels actually light in weight or is it just a clever marketing name?

 

No, I have yet to remove and refit an "Ultralite" rim without thinking the name is a little misleading! Not as heavy as some of the ridiculous lumps of *hite I have had to deal with, but nothing to compare to a lightweight Rays design ,or OZ either. I have Gramme Lights on my Skyline,only `cos it came with them, they are fairly light, but I don't entirely trust a bonded rim on a car with race brakes, due to not knowing how the adhesive will react to a LOT of heat.
