I could be far more derogatory, but suffice it to say I do not like them. I do not like ADR in general, and I do not like 19s on FDs.
But hey whatever, as the folks who want to patronize you say, "don't listen to them, it's your car."

I think the wheels look funny because fd's without body kit or spoiler on big wheels dont look right, if you put a nice kit on the car it will make it look 10x better, as far as looking good, they are a good looking wheel.

They are in the mid 20s lbs range for weight , you can find lighter most definitely but Im not racing , just fast cruising I am going to try and lower it some - maybe an inch , there is no rubbing issues right now but we will see once I lower it a touch more. As far as feeling evry bump in the road , youll be surprised how nice it actually rides , I thought it would feel like a gokart too but I was pleased when I put them on.

Those are some sweet rims though. I really like the look of them, but I'd have to agree with others. I'd like them more if they were 17's, or even 18's. They do look a bit too large.

This is about all I have to say about ADR wheels in general:

I think they look nice, but are too big for the FD (both aesthetically and for performance).
Light wheels give a better ride, too -- they aren't just for performance. A lower ratio of sprung to unsprung weight improves your ride comfort.
