if its out of just those 2, go with the asanti's. Yes the lowenhart's are nice, but there really over priced, lowenhart thinks there **** don't stink so they charge ridiculous prices, when in reality asanti is a much cleaner looking wheel. If your interested in asanti's or lowenharts for that matter, there's a shop in my area called AP Performance that has asanti's for around $700 a piece for 20's.

sorry, but those wheels are soo ugly.... just my 2 pennies! I would would go with specialized mercedes wheels like Carlsson or Lorinser. Brabus would be a good one too, but i'm not a big fan of that brand.

I would not recommend the LSRs because Lowenharts are very soft wheels, and cost as much as forged wheels which are much stronger.

I agree with Derrick. While I really like Lowey styles and especially the LSR, I would never buy a set. I've seen more of them bent and broken than any other wheel. I remember a Miami Heat player's brother bringing one of their cars to the shop with all four wheels broken. The techs threw them on a pile of other bent/broken Lowenharts. I was shocked, those puppies aren't cheap. Personally, I like Savini Forged, Work, HRE, iForged, Vellano, MHT...so many others.
