"Cheap Wheels a Decent Deal?"

[FONT=Arial][SIZE=2]Hey, guys. I'm new here and I just wanted to drop a quick question. I found this eBay store that has killer prices on these wheels. Most of them are a brand called ADR. I've never heard of the brand. Does anyone know anything about these? Here's a link if you want to see the wheels I'm talking about. [/SIZE][/FONT]

The prices are crazy low, but I want to make sure that I'm getting something decent. I am not looking to buy a super lightweight wheel or anything. I just want a cheap deal on some nice looking wheels.[/SIZE][/FONT]

If you want a cheap wheel, buy them here used from members as 'take-offs'

Better yet, go to Tirerack.com (a forum advertiser and general all around good vendor) and buy some Borbets or Koseis. Decent price for decent wheel.

Yes, definitely lower end, but then again I picked up 17lb Flik Matte Titanium wheels for $99 a corner. Have yet to fail me, and with the low cost any road rash is easily...replaced.
