Not according to lab tests conducted by Runrepeat. The allegedly PEBA based Dreamstrike+ midsole of the Rise has no more energy return than the worst EVA shoe models. The forefoot stack height is a mere 22mm and 4mm of that is the insole and another 2mm is the rubber. I suspect that Adidas is using a substandard PEBA that may be blended with EVA like the 80/20 EVa/PEBA foam concoction in the New Balance Rebel V4.
Runningwarehouse, which offers incentives to customers to review purchased products has zero reviews for either the Rise, Rise 2, or Prima. This indicates a lack of interest from serious runner, RW's primary customer base. Social media chatter on the Supernovae lineup is largely non-existent. Aside from the usual sponsored Shoe-tubers on YouTube and review websites that have various conflict of interests there's little commentary for these budget models.
Within the Adidas brand Runners are best served by sticking with the Adizero line and people looking for ath-leisure options will gravitate towards the Ultraboost line which have better build quality and aesthetics.
Then they sound ideal for you.
My feet are on the narrow low volume side of the spectrum. I don't have much insight on shoes for wide feet.
