Asanti Wheels

[Frogman]

Anyone have experience with them? Build quality, etc?

Thanks.

I will probably regret this, but did you do a search......WOW......that felt good!

 

[Frogman]

Didn't it though?

For the price of them...I didn't bother..... when your wheels cost more than all mods you could do to a car...then I think it's time to just put the krys on the floor and walk away.

 

[Frogman]

Heh.

Don't take this the wrong way, pete... but let me worry about how much they cost.

These are the wheels I'm interested in. found them on Asanti's website, don't remember the model number, but that's no big thing to find again.

Will do. Just all the options I wanted would make then 7-10k

I don't know - on the 450?

Actually we have a lot on our various show cars - they are like jewels, and they show great - I have been told the build quality is extremely good

However, they are more well known for show rather than go...

 

[Frogman]

Pffft. I don't want show. I want go.

They looked great on the car I saw them on, and they had 295/30/19 rubber on them. Thats a lot of meat.

Not for the 450. That would be... silly, me thinks. I'm thinking of putting them on one of the V-rods.

Hey cutie! ;-)

I would agree.....for sho, not for go. But then again if you buy a very expensive piece of jewelry...do you expect it to be just as worn out as a cheaper version that is meant for heavy duty? Probably not.....

You're putting them on the MK8? I'm not sure how I feel about rivets. Have you looked into any other companies? CCW makes some DAMN nice wheels... a lot of guys in vettes etc. run them so theyre probably good quality.

Thanks, KD. I like the 505a pic, but it don't look like they have much lip to them.

I think they have varying lips. It might just be the picture, but I hope you get those. They are baller. So they're for the Mark?

 

[Frogman]

Yup.

Well... I would have, but the last two times I called you, I hate to say this, you kinda flaked out on us.
