I haven't heard of any particular problems with the company. They just don't make high quality performance wheels.

ADR Cyphers? How much do they weigh? I think I was considering those wheels until I heard they weigh a lot. I think thats why some people don't go for the ADRs because they aren't really that light. If you are looking for nice looking, value minded wheels, then they are fine. Performance? I like volks. These must look great though! Gunmetal...please say gunmetal. hehehe

Their reps are dicks and think that their wheels are the sh*t. Personally, I think there products are crap. Oh yeah, you can get away with 285/30/18 or 285/35/18, but you have to roll or cutt your fender a little. I currently run 265/35/18, but the tire looks a little small for the 18x10s.
