Oh my God! I had a set of 20" Asantis on my GS and they were a total nightmare. $5300 for the wheels and tires and all I got was 12 visits to discount tire with crazy vibration. They measured them and found them wheels to be out of round. They sent them back to Asanti and they rebuilt them but they were still out of round. I asked for a refund and discount tire had to eat the wheels because Asanti refused to take their crappy wheels back. That experience is one of the main reason why I will only order wheels with discount tire.

Nice to hear everything worked out for you Nash.

And I Ate a Bimmer, I've read several unsolicited endorsements here for Discount Tire. I've never used them, but based on what I've read here, I would consider them in the future.

I also ran a set of 22" Asantis on one of my cars for a little over 2 years with no issues. I didn't buy them from Discount Tire so I'm not sure if that's the problem. Would I buy another set of Asantis... absolutely!
