Nothing wrong with running a 17 on the street, and switching to a 15 or 16 at the track.

The ADR 17" wheels are like 15 lbs a piece. I had a pair but had to sell them, UPS shipped them as 15 lbs a piece box/plastic included.

I dont know much about the brand of rimsbut someone told me just to be careful wiht the type of polish that would be on the lip. My friend said sometimes the lip will start to peel? for the price i think the rims are a good deal but wanna make sure that im notgetting ripped off by some cheap ass wheels at the same time.
