What do plan to put them on? What are the specs for those wheels, i.e.. weight, width, offset?

As far as quality is concerned I don't think really highly of ADR wheels. They are ok for a cheap wheel I suppose. But a lot of times I am a firm believer in you get what you pay for most of the time. I ran some on my old Civic hatchback for a little while. One of the lips on mine did get slightly bent somehow I guess from a pothole (I don't remember ever hitting anything substantial at the time).

By comparison I run bigger wheels on my Sentra with a smaller sidewall with some Rays wheels and drive it all over the east coast and have never had any problems with the wheels whatsoever. And I ran Axis wheels before that and never had any problems with those either.

Yeah, ADR is one of the brands I most often see quality issues with. IMO there are other brands that are not much more expensive with notably better quality.

at $290 it seems like a good deal.

that's just too cheap to pass up. but make sure they'll fit with proper clearance for your suspension setup and all that jive.

otherwise you've wasted 300 bucks. and then don't get too high of expectations for them, because no matter how little you pay for them, they probably will give you problems later on. i actually think the build quality on stock rims is better. it's just that they come in sizes that are less than acceptable for high performance applications.

$290 per wheel or $290 for the set of 4?

I'm sorry, I don't trust wheels that are under $100 per wheel, and I sure as hell wouldn't pay $300/wheel for ADRs.

I still don't like ADR's quality.
