I am familiar with those lines. They will do the job, not lightweight. What do you need your wheels to do? Track? street? etc....

you get what you pay for.

Stern used to be a very good Japanese brand... and then someone bought the name and started making them in China (or equivalent).

Ya Golden Apple, the makers of ADR Wheels and RS Limited bought out the company 5+ years ago and are piggybacking the "JDM" name to produce a "high end" line of their wheels.

HP Design is also made in Asia somewhere and we're actually looking into distributing their affordable line due to them being the importers for AutoArt forged wheels.
