Default ASA IS6 wheels, cost only $99, weight 29 pounds!

I just spoke with someone at Autoline. Never heard of this place before. SOmehow they got my phone number through the ASA website.

I really like the IS6 wheels because they look like OZ f1 pluses (which aren't made anymore). When the guy said they were $99, I thought he made a mistake. Then when he said they weighed 29 lbs, I saw it was no mistake.

Is this all true? Tirerack lists the IS6 at $209. Are there any other wheels similar to the OZ f1 pluses?

Thanks.

Default They weigh 20 lbs according to Eddie

I just spoke with Eddie@TireRack over the phone... and he said that these were new wheels and a fresh batch just came in. I can't imagine them to be 29 lbs...

Default Interesting (m)

The ASA wheel uses manufacturing technology under license from BBS which means you are getting a similar quality.

We are now carrying ASA wheels that will be handled exclusively thru us on the newer designs.

The 17X8s are brand new at 209.00 per wheel. If you can actually purchase them for 99.00 I would suggest you do so since that is WAAAAAY below what I can buy them from ASA for. Sounds like some kind of mistake to me somewhere??? Caveat Emptor!

Default Yeah, must have been a mistake. Eddie, which other ASA wheels do/will you carry? Any in anthracite?
