ASA Type 8 Replica wheels OK?
Anyone ever used these before? Is it a 66.6mm bore?

I have been looking for something that is a little bigger/wider than stock for E320 coupe. Currently running my 16x8 500E wheels but they are a touch to big, I like the idea of buying a new wheel over messing with used ones. Been there done that.

Thanks for the info guys.
I am not to concerned about the weight. These are actually made in china it says, I may call Tirerack get some more details. I just didn't know anything about ASA.

Apologies
Sorry for the mis-leading info on ASA origins.
Thanks for pointing it out. I have deleted the post.
I expect that wheels offered by TR would be ok - they don't want to lose customer confidence on safety-related parts.
Asian manufacturers are only "self-regulated".
