The car looks amazing. I must admit that its funny that the guys in the US are into JDM wheels but the guys in Japan like the American Asanti's.


what springs or coilovers are you dropped on?? The stance looks nice

I have seen at least 3 magazine articles on VIP crews in Japan and they had Asantis on everything from Lamborghinis to Rolls Royces. I had a set and they were out of round so left a bitter taste in my mouth but they looked like the highest quality finish I have ever seen . In all honesty the tech at the wheel shop said its not an Asanti thing. He said the out of round issue is a 3 pc wheels thing.
