looks aside....but aren't the Ultralegerras the lightest alloy you can buy for a car?

F1 cars use OZ wheels as they're ultra light.

Just wondering why you wanted to change them? (if not just looks)

they are light but definitely not the lightest, the wedsports tc105n's come in under 2lb a rim lighter at 18x8

Looks much meaner now with the dark ADVANS, gold rims are so 2000.
