Thanks for posting the picture. I do not know how to do it.
For those who don't know about this company . ASA is a company that located in Korea and lisensed by BBS. I got the wheels and tires from tireack for the price of $1416.00 including shipping, mounting and balacing.

Actually, I don't think they would look that small on an A-Spec or other lowered suspension. I think the wheel gap makes the wheels look smaller than they are. They do look nice on car though.

They look very heavy -- but looks are deceiving w/ wheels frequently.

The weight of the wheel is 24.7 Lbs. It is heavy.
Does any body know what is the weight of 17" OEM wheel ?

Those wheels are awful looking! Don't take offense, I just don't like 'em. Especially at that price. Not that you'd run off and get rid of them because of me, but do yourself the favor of adding the Eibach Prokit Springs, might actually tie those rims to your car a little better. Take care.

Thanks for your input. I still like the look of my wheels.
My next mod. Comp Tech Spring & Rear Sway Bar.
Check this out.

Looks great, once you have those comptech springs, you should be even better looking!
