Does anyone have a set of ASA AR1 wheels from "Tire Rack"???
I think I'm real close to ordering a set...
The are Black with machined lip...18X8...$219.00 each...
If anyone has a set (on anything) I'd love to see a picture....
Go to "Tire Rack"...
Click on: Products...Wheels....Brands... .ARA....AR1....
I think they really look great...
Thanks, architect

Brother, be careful with the offsets. Pattern may be the same. TR usually knows their stuff, but check to be sure. PM me if they are anything but 50mm and I'll run the calcs for ya.

Architect,

I like those but the mesh isn't tight enough for me. The black sport mesh on our cars would kill the dead though. I was looking at the RPM 505's in black and chrome, but the offsets were 38mm. I have bought from the Rack before and if they say they will fit, they will. If you get those take a lot of pictures.

I know it's not a site vendor, but I was just looking for the offset info...

They are +40. This means they'll stick out 2/5's of an inch more than stock. The back can take it, but in the front this will throw mud on your doors.
Will give a slightly 'fatter' stance look.

I can't find any pics on cars, though.

Good luck!

I think a 40mm offset will fit just fine, but y'all with big brake kits in front had better measure the internal diameter (ID) of this wheel against that of the OEM wheel...Just my .02C.
