After trying a bunch of different wheels (on that demo thing), I'm leaning toward these. They have a more classic look - at least in the picture where they're actually on the car. I would have never picked them, otherwise. I wonder how they'd look in real life, though...anyone have them? Pic's?

I like those wheels. Orignally those were the ones I had selected for my car. I later decided on the TSW Kyalami 18x9's in hyper silver all around. IMO, those ASA's would be hot in something bigger than 17". I say go for it chica!

Nice Wheels

I like these wheels a lot and I agree they will give your vehicle a classy look rather than too flashy. I was looking for a similar classy look for my Stang and settle ( after long debate) for a set of 20" Falken Kobelnz rims with some Nitto 555 tires. They have not arrived yet, but I am hoping they will look great. I will post some pics when they are on the car

Thanks! Liimey? Does that mean you have legend lime, too? There aren't too many on this board (at least from what I can tell). Rims look nice. Very simple and clean. And wow - 20"? I'll be interested to see those pic's! I was only planning on going 18X8/18X9. I really want the back a little wider - that is a must. But size seems to be the biggest problem (yes, folks, size DOES matter ). Really, tho', there seems to be a serious lack of size options on wheels.

Hi GT Jade,

Actually I have on order ( it landed at the dealer yesterday and I am collecting on Monday) a white convertable with red leather.
I went through the same debate on tire wheels and sizes and I really wanted to stagger the wheels so the rears would be bigger, but in 20" there are not as many options as you would think as a lot of wheels manufacturers do not make a staggered option, as the thinking is most owners like to rotate your tires. TSW ( mondello, Montage) are beautiful rims available staggered, but they were back ordered and I really like the Falkens.
Check out their site http://www.falkentire.com/
and click on the Koblenz and click on the pictures. There is a great shot of a silevr BMW and a 350z with these rims on.
