ASA wheels

Does anyone have any experiance with ASA wheels? i read on another thread that they were associated with BBS but cost is half of what BBS are. in other words your paying for the name. i was looking at these because i think they would look good on a 1 series. they are lighter then stock aswell ET is 45mm all around. what would be the biggest tire in that offset for the rear, im on H@R sport springs and i would roll fenders.

Those would be BBS replicas, not wheels made by BBS. AKA, knock offs for bling.

Straight from BBS USA:

Quote:
BBS wheels will ALWAYS have “BBS” somewhere on the wheel. There are many “Replica” or copies
of BBS style wheels in the market and they are NOT BBS wheels. Also, if a wheel is branded as
“ASA” it is NOT a wheel that was made by BBS and we DO NOT have any parts for ASA wheels.

Those wheels dont look half bad, and they're not as heavy as many other wheel options out there
