Just bought another E55... wheels: ASA GT8 anyone got them?

Bought an 03 e55 - needed torque back in my life. Car came with some reps and wanted to swap out the wheels. Prefer CCWs, Kinesis, Fikse, or even OEM, but cant find a decent set locally, or at a decent price inc. shipping. I looked on tirerack and I see the ASA GT8. Anyone running them on their e55? Pics, impressions, opinions? thanks

P.S.. if anyone knows of a decent set of CCW, Kinesis, Fikse, or OEM e55/e63 wheels, I am in south FL with cash in hand.

You mention CCW, Kinesis, and Fikse... then talk about ASAs? These are not within the same realm. If you expect the former quality, you will be very disappointed with the latter.

E55, Audi S4
If you want OEM e55's , I have 3 available (1 of the rears had a crack in it and I had to discard it) that could use a refinish but are otherwise okay (TPMS batteries are dead as well). I don't have any real use for them and they're just taking up space in my garage - PM me if interested.

Don't run those. They are just reps of the Vossen CV3, and they have that distinctive "rep" look.

You want Forgestar CF5s they are rotary cast(like many bbs wheels) lightweight and strong.

19 inch CV3's are treating me well - Reasonable price.
