Personally, I wouldn't buy ADR's...they are definitely in the lower end of the wheel spectrum (sorry GS400_PUSHER)...all of their designs are pretty much knock-offs also...

If you like that style wheel, get the Lowenhart BR-5's...

I like the BR-5's as well, how much more are they over the ADR's? According to many of the sites that I checked they were almost 2X the price. Does anyone know where you can pick up a set of 19" BR-5's w/ Tires for a reasonable package price?

They are twice the price because they are a REAL multipiece wheel and made to higher standard than ANYTHING by ADR (and the ADR is a 1 piece)...generally, 1 piece wheels are less expensive but offer much less "customizability" in terms of widths and offsets...

If you like the BR-5 style, get BR-5's...
