    Were the wheels cheap enough to justify $300 adapters?

    The biggest issue with adapters is they are also spacers. That's pretty awesome that they're only 15mm thick, but that's still a pretty big change in offset (not acceptable, to me). Also, adapters are as thick as they are (usually double that, or so) to make them strong. I don't think I'd trust anything that thin unless it was steel.

    No I didn't pay 04 price, grabbed them because I thought I was getting a deal and I've wanted these wheels for a while. I'm not a fan of spacers but just considering my options besides selling them.

    Thanks for the input I'll check out the reviews on nasioc and make a decision.
