New Wheels are on!
I'm having a heck of a time trying to post the photos. Tried to upload them through the photo gallery but it failed for some reason. What should I do?

Review
19" ASA JH9 and Kuhmo Ecsta tires.
Love them and no compromise in ride quality in my opinion. I cannot tell the added 2 pounds per tire.

Looks nice! How does it drive?

Tip for next time, no bigger than 640x480 for ease of viewing and faster loading.

Good job!

Yeah I know I goofed that one up, sorry guys. It drives almost the same as with the Toyo's that I had on before. I was really worried I was going to compromise ride quality quite a bit but I truly cannot tell a difference so I'm happy and my wife is not mad at me. Haven't had a chance to take some turns yet will let you know.

No drop and after looking now I don't think I need one. TPMS recognized right away no worries. It was easier that way just getting them from Tire Rack.

Everything out the door TPMS, tires, shipping, wheels, and no tax because I'm in Ohio and Tire Rack is in Indiana. I couldn't pass up a sweet deal like that.

They look great!!

I have been looking at ASA wheels too. Is this a good reputable brand? Has anyone heard anything about them?

Thanks!

I was going to go with those exact rims. But ended up going with the 18" a-specs...
Looks good, however a height adjustment certainly wouldn't hurt!
