Talking Just Ordered 18" ASA JH9 Rims!

They will be wrapped with 225/45/18 Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Position tires. They should be here Thursday.
I will post pics as soon as I get them on. Cost me $1,499.00

Problem is my paint guy is supposed to call me this week to drop the car off.
If the car goes for paint this week I will mount them after I get it back and post pics.

ASA JH9/ Bridgestone Potenza tires





What they look like on a Cobalt. I think these are 19s though.

Thanks guys. The only reason I stuck with 18s is the weight.

These ASA JH9s are a little heavy but the 19s are very heavy.
I love the look of these rims so I had to go with 18s.
Plus potholes are ruthless around here. A 19" rim with a 40 profile tire won't last long. It's my daily driver.

The rims you have are fine as 19s becuase I think they are the same weight as stock 18s right?

They've worked for me!

They have some sort of technology sharing agreement with Borbet which is good to know.
