I've also owned a set of adr's in a previous car, bent 3/4 wheels, clear coat chipping, etc. I'll never buy a set again.

I phrased my statement weird I guess. I was saying as far as deep dish rims go. I'm suprised that the clearcoat on the spokes is chipping though.

I just sold my ADRs "as is" on ebay with lots of pictures of the damage and someone picked them up for $450.
