What is so bad about ADR?

JGTC is basically a "minor league" racing series. The big boys play with BBS...FIA-GT, F1, Champ Car, and ALMS. BBS are a notch above Volks...and IMO they copied the designs of some BBS's. I know for a fact that Volk/Rays didnt innovate forged magnessium, BBS created the process to do so. Dont knock the lesser rims because Volk does some copying too.

What rims did Volk copy? That's fine that BBS created the process of forged magnesium, but its not like Volk took a BBS rim design, made it exactly the same and just named it differently...using the same forging process as another company isnt like actually stealing a design from another manufacturer...the only volks rim i could see that remotely resembles a BBS would be a mesh-style rim, but most mesh rims look similar anyways...and the Volk mesh rims such as the Volk Winnings and Volk III's couldnt be mistaken for BBS rims, the designs are different.

The Volk Winning, GTA, and LE37K look strikingly similar to BBS style rims.....Quit trying to defend Volk, you dont work for them do you? They are not the end all of rims.....When it comes down to it, rims are rims. They create a seal for a tire and attach to a hub. Volks are nice rims, but so are a lot of other brands.
