ASA AR7 Rims 19x8

Hey all,

Just wanted to check in with you guys. I'm picking this rims up this weekend and wanted to see what you guys thought.

They're ASA AR7 rims, 19X8 wrapped in 235/35ZR-19 Bridgestone Potenzas. Here are some google magic pics.

Yay or nay? They will be going on my DGP 04, with no drop as I like the stock ride height and go through WAY too many speed bumps in my neighborhood, haha.

19s on stock ride height =

you can get away with a 1.5 inch drop and still clear those pesky speed bumps, and ride like stock.

I went ahead and got the rims because I couldn't pass them up for the price they were offered for.

I put them on Saturday, but lost a centercap somewhere during the test drive, so I ordered a new one on Tirerack.com

Will post pics later today. I don't think they look horrible, but everyone is right, with a drop it would look much better. I may just go with my stock S Type rims (love them) and resell these. The tires are practically brand new, and there is almost NO damage or curbage anywhere on the rims.

they look nice on your car! I concur they would look even nicer with a drop, but I fully understand why you would not want to lower your car if it's your daily driver.

The tires are close to new. I'd say under 10k miles probably

The deal was good but I'd rather not name the price lets just say I got the whole set for less than the value of the tires. The guy said the whole set cost him over 1500 bucks new.

Heres some "moar" pics haha. We're having some amazing weather for Valentines here in VA. 60 degrees FTW!!!

Keep in mind these are the FIRST pics of my car with the A-spec kit, tint, and lip spoiler on. Oh and its filthy

some tire shine, some spacers for the wheels and a drop definitely make this a night and day change
