Go to ADRs website! They have 2 FDs with them. Those are the only FDs I have seen with the rims.

18inch volks are usually around 18lbs. The adr are somewhere around 28lbs(I think). The adr wheels are very cheap in price and quality, ask the honda guys about that(they bend them all the time and dont know why

OK....after doing multiple searches on google for M-sport wheels, I kept pulling up hondas, eclipses, some 350 Z that were running the M-sport. Time to look at something else for the FD.

lol.thats a good thing to know.But i thought the adr rims came with a lifetime warranty? wouldnt it cover **** like that? 28 pounds a wheel is frickin insane.I like the adr cyphers as well.Any idea how much those puppies weigh? I guess my biggest worry is that if i do save up for a long time and get volks id hate to bend the *******.
How about it anyone have volks on your ride? Let me know what kind of quality they are and if youve ever bent a volk rim.

For the car that has Greddy on the nose (2 pics up, 2 shots), it doesn't say on the site. Although given the mod list I think Noel Rollon has the IQ of a potato chip.

He is running

what's the point of running a 9.5" rim when all you put on it is 235??

I thought the whole concept of a wider rim is so you can run a wider tire??

the only answer i can think of is its for show. deep lip in the rear

Gives it the dorifto sidewall look too. Check the second pic. Maybe he wants zero sidewall flex and less grip?
