ADR rims

I am very close to purchasing some 19" ADR M-Sport wheels. I have seen a few on Zs and I think they look nice. I was curious to see if anyone knows how good the quality is on these rims or ADR as a whole.

Also, could anyone recommend a decent tire for those wheels. A buddy of mine suggested Kumho tires, but I have a feeling those are a lower end brand of tires.

btw I have a G coupe non-brembos.

Re: ADR rims

they look good since you dont have the brembos.. they wont fit the brembos at all... make sure you go with the staggered set and good with better than the lowest tires out there...

Re: ADR rims

My plan was to get 19 x 8.5 fronts and 19 x 9.5 rears...with 245/35/19 front 275/30/19 rear.. my concern was a good tire brand.

Re: ADR rims

i've the 18's with Goodyear GS-D3s. The M-Sports supposedly are guaranteed from structural defects for life.

I'm pissed at myself cuz I nicked my rear wheel against a curb last nite.

Re: ADR rims

There are several people with 18" M-Sports and Brembos and they clear fine. The 19"s should have no problems. There don't seem to be any issues with defects. There is a reason why they are so cheap though. They are manufactured as a cheap cast wheel. They are extremely heavy with plenty of reinforcement to keep them stiff. I called them a while ago and got wheel weights of 33 lbs per front(19x8.5") and 35 lbs per rear(19x9.5"). If you are looking for a wheel that just looks nice, then they are a great deal. If you are looking at a wheel for better performanance, look at a forged or pressure cast wheel instead.

Re: ADR rims

Everyone that I talked to b4 buying the M-sports said that they 18's & 19's, will not clear the stock Brembo brakes on a G35. If they're clearing, they're using a spacer. The offset is 35mm vs 30mm stock. But it's not just based on offset either...

For those strapped for cash, they're a very nice alternative to Volks. The 18's actually weigh less than the stock 18's by a few pounds.
