Looking good.

It always amazes me how a set of staggered wheels can make the SC even more sexy. I can never get tired of lookin'

Exactly.

TR's had a great deal on those wheels for some time now ... I just wonder about the quality of the wheel on a heavy car like an SC.

Lets us know if you see any changes in the smoothness of the ride.

Yeah, I was also concerned about that so googled "ASA rims quality" and became real comfortable with the reputation and history of ASA. This type of wheel would not be my choice for a track rim but was not looking for that (I would not run a big rim like 18 at track anyway).

As you said TR had them on closeout, but they no longer have rears available in that wheel after my order wiped em out.

Thanks again for the compliments.

Regards,

Tim

Yes, I'm sure they're fine for the street, and I'd want some thing in a 17" super light forged for track, but my car will never see the track.

I've never heard anything bad about ASA, and look forward to hearing more good things about these.
