18X8 Chrome ASA ST4 with Continental ContiExtremeContact

I purchased a new set of wheels last Friday and they should be arriving in the next 10-20 days because they are sourcing the tires. Here is what I bought:

18X8 ASA ST4 Chrome wheels (made by BBS) 44 offset, hub rings
245/45/18 Continental ContiExtremeContact Ultra High Performance All-Season
4 Acura TPMS

The package costed a little over $2K with shipping included.



The only problem is I might be trading or selling the car after my Charger SRT-8 test drive on Saturday (see my other thread). So if anyone is interested, these may be for sale around mid December!!

Looks similar to .......

Nice. Those ATA wheels look similar to RonJon's Devotion 3pF wheels. Hope you can post a pic of your RL with the new wheels and tires for us to see how it looks. Thanks.

If anyone is interested, I will be selling my stock 17 inch wheels with Michelin tires once the new wheels come in. They have 5500 miles on them and are perfect. I was thinking ~$650 obo with TPMS?

aren't the ones in the photo 19s?

If they would make 19" ASA ST4's for the RL they would be on my car already . . .

Yes, in the photo they are 19X8 inch wheels. They do make the wheel in 19X8.5 with a 5X120 bolt pattern, but the offset is in the 20s... which is usually for the BMW 5 series.

Update on the wheels.. UPS has lost one wheel/tire/TPM. It takes 7-14 days for them to investigate and then write me a check and then I have to wait to get another wheel/tire/TPM. So now I have three wheels that I can do nothing with

UPS is worthless when it comes to getting something someplace in one piece or at all. I've have to file a claim about every other time I use them. The only saving grace is that if you do have insurance on the shipment (which I hope you do) they are easy to work with. Lukcily all of my claims have fallen within their $150 automatic coverage and they've never given me any crap about it and just refund my money.

Any chance you could snap a pic or two of one of the wheels/tires that did show up? I'm considering purchasing these wheels and would love to see some real world pictures of them.

Thanks in advance!

No problem Jeff,
I will try to put two of them on this weekend just to show how they look on the RL on one side at least. Don't buy a set just yet, I might give you a heck of a deal on my brand new set when this last wheel/tire comes in
