Saw them and was sorely tempted to try them out. Went with a custom set of adapters from A-DAPT-IT USA Wheel Adapters instead.

As long as they are made with strong hardware I don't see what differance there could be? Looks like billet aluminum just like ones you buy for a car?

I would question doing this. that 250 quad probably has 30-50hp.

the studs are probably #10M, which is not stud material for a car.

Think of the weight, speed, power, and rotating mass of the wheels in comparison to a quad . I doubt they are rated for a street car.
