20" ASANTI E92 SG// Something different

Islika153 · 06-21-2009, 07:51 AM

20"x9 - 20"x10.5 wrapped in NITTO INVO
sorry so big. Will get more pics soon.

volinder · 06-21-2009, 10:47 AM

I kinda like them, can you put up more photos from different angles. BTW, i have a feeling a bunch of people are gonna hate on them because they're not BBS, Volk, or HRE. So get ready!!! Good job on finding a unique wheel though.

in the picture/ video section i have link to a 360 walk around and a rolling video if you wanna see more.

i ilke them actually. how much did the cost?

Islika153 · 06-21-2009, 09:42 PM

They are completely custom ordered Rims (color combo) and their are no spacers used. Lowered with H&R sport springs incase you are wondering.
Cost: $1300 ish per RIM.

custom built at Asantiwheels.com and ordered & installed through http://www.carnutz.cc/ of Bellevue, WA

thanks to Car Nutz for handling installation of all my Mods. More work to be done

King Tut · 06-22-2009, 12:39 PM

20" of heavy Asanti chrome. I know they are one piece forged, but they just look heavy to me and would be better on an SUV or donk. Do you know how much they weigh?

chris s · 06-22-2009, 01:14 PM

Not feeling the finish at all.

Ca$hOnly · 06-22-2009, 01:25 PM

Ghetto

Islika153 · 06-22-2009, 01:50 PM

well, I guess I'll take the negative aswell, but if it was matte black/brushed and had HRE badge I wonder how the tide of opinion would turn. O'well to each their own. Thanks for visiting anyways.

chris s · 06-22-2009, 01:55 PM

It's nothing personal...sorry. Just not a fan of high-polish "chrome like" finishes. Its a good looking rim... Gotta take the good with the bad buddy when you post pics.

askiles · 06-22-2009, 02:26 PM

I personally think they would have looked better if they did not have the black mounting flange with the chrome hardware. All polished would have looked better. I am glad you like them though. That is really all that matters.

What Invo's do you have one them?

Thanks, I love the simple 5- star kinda look but wanted a little more show considering its not gonna be used for the track. Mostly used for a little Highway fun and going out at night(clubs/bars). I dont think anything shows its lines at night better then Gray/ Silver with alittle chrome.

Jonmartin · 06-27-2009, 02:03 AM

Not bad. Its def a break away from the mold these days everyone wants to mod their cars the same its getting to the point of everyones car looks exactly the same. So kudo's for being different and not falling for the standard mods everyone and their brother has.

Diesel///M · 07-01-2009, 10:34 PM

its not that ghetto its just not jdm it could be way worse they look clean

rudy26s · 12-17-2011, 04:16 PM

very nice but in black would be awesome!!

techartlove · 12-20-2011, 10:48 AM

quality > look
how's quality on these wheels?

socalbreeze · 12-20-2011, 10:54 AM

Nothing against you OP, beauty is in the eye of beholder, if you like them, it doesnt matter what the rest of us think. But I'm not a fan.

Never liked Ashanti on sports cars. I believe they are heavy, even if they are forged. These are similar to GFG forged or Giovanni.

Its not that majority likes Volks, HRE, or BBS. These wheels fits better for the M3.

LarThaL · 12-21-2011, 09:30 AM

I like the style, but the finish is a little too BLiNg for my tastes.

THE TECH · 12-21-2011, 09:55 AM

Too much bling.

808elise · 12-27-2011, 10:57 PM

Keep the new stuff coming guys. Looks great.

I am personally not a chrome guy but I like the wheel.

M-PIRE · 12-28-2011, 01:39 PM

what is the front spoiler you have? looks great. i love the space gray color. it's awesome.
