Grant, do the ASA AR1 rims come in a 17x8 size? I was looking at them for the infiniti Q45 and i like the widths of the 18's but i would rather a 17 inch wheel (17x8 front 17x9 rear).

The only sizes i saw listed were 17x7, 17x9, 18x8 and 18x9.

thanks for the help!

my favorit are the BBS LM's but they are a tad expensive ;)

Forged wheels are the best, and these are probably the best of the best. Check out the Nismo by Rays Engineering (Volk).

Maybe Grant can quote us on these in 17x8.5, although I would be tempted to try the 17x9 on the front.

This is a brand new wheel from ASA and they are just starting to come in. These are the options so far in the 5-114:

17X7 ET38 or ET4017X9 ET4518X8 ET35 or ET4018X9 ET45

These are a low pressure cast, shot peened , T-6 Heat treated wheel. They are working on getting weights up on our system this week. They won't be a real light weight but should be fairly good for a cast wheel.

I thought those ASA AR1 wheels looked alright. I like the machined lip...just wished they came in other finishes besides silver! Hey Grant...please provide any updates though if ASA ever decides to go with a finish other than just silver and/or if they come out with a 17x8 size for the 5-114! Thanks!
