keep in mind you get what you pay for. alot of those wheels that are dirt cheap are made in china or somewhere using cheap metals and it wont take much to bend it. Sure one wheels might be $100, but if you bend it and have to get another, your up to $200 which at that point you could have bought a really nice wheel that probably wont be made of recycled tin foil.

ADR and BSA are generic knockoffs of knockoffs.

The only cheaper brands I really trust are Konig and Rota. Sportmax is ok, too, just heavy.

i wouldnt go see any of the canidates speak this election....its another bush / kerry election where both suck and either way we are screwed. I wish Al Gore would have ran again, I like him alot! He is very intelligent and in tune with the countries needs. Although I do give credit to the canidates now for having the guts to take on the HUGE responsibility of getting this country back on track
