ASA JH3 Fitment Question

Matt_UKTX · 03-18-2006, 11:04 PM

I want to buy a set of 18" ASA JH3's for my E90 330i. However, on Tire Rack's site, they only show that the 17's fit the E90. What's strange is that they show that they the 18s will fit an E46 (they appear in the "Upgrade Garage"), but not an E90 (they do not appear in the "Upgrade Garage"). Is this just an oversight or am I missing something? They are 18x8 with 40mm offset. There are many other 18x8 40mm ET that show as fitting the E90, so why not these? Any help would be appreciated...

Matt,

You ask about a new wheel every week. Just pick one brother.

I didn't know they offered them in 18' either... I liked the design but didn't like the fact that they were only 17's on the web page. Those are really nice rims because they look similar to 550 sport rims. You'd probably want to throw some spacers on the rear ones just to give it an aggressive look.
Why not contact Tirerack and fill us all in? I'm sure there's a lot of people who'd be interested in 18's.

Wow, I just went to tirerack and those wheels are being offered at 119 each (closeout special). That's a hella good deal. I'm going to email them and see why they aren't listed under the E90 upgrade area.

Cool!!! If price is an issue, get some of those Kuhmo tires. I had them a long time ago and they lasted FOREVER (over 40,000 miles). Plus, they were really quiet.

Did you have the SPT's or the ASX?

I think they were the SPT's... It was back in 1996. They were REALLY good overall tires. Mind you, they weren't track tires, but still very good gripping tires that were better than most others costing twice as much. I drove the HELL out of them on my Eclipse GSX and they would never wear down.
