Edited this post on Jan.8, 2009.... my 19" ASA AR1 wheels with General Exclaim tires will be for sale starting Jan.19, which is when I get my replacement wheels (Rota Torques with Goodyear All Seasons), updated original post:

I'm selling my set of 19" stagerred ASA AR1 wheels with General Exclaim UHP tires for $1000, here in Chicago, IL. Wheel color is silver with machined lip. Rear is 265/30-ZR19 39mm offset, wheel dimensions 19 x 9.5", front 235/35-ZR19 40mm offset, wheel dimensions 19" x 8.5". I bought the entire set brand new from tirerack.com in the summer of 2006, wheels & tires are a recommended upgrade size so they don't rub. They have about 16,700 gentle miles on them on my 2006 325i with Sport Package, never raced and never crashed. Wheels are in very good shape, minor knicks on the edges that are visible when you look close-up. I've never hit a curb, they're knicks from the tire tracks in the automatic car wash. Wheels are not bent or cracked, they were checked last month during my annual service check at a BMW dealer. The finish still shines like new, especially in the sun after being cleaned. The tires are one of the few in this size that can actually be driven in light snow, it's a summer tire with an M+S (mud and snow) rating. I wouldn't drive it in anything deeper than 2" snow although the car will get thru slowly by feathering the gas. Less than 2" of snow and you can get by fine by being careful on the gas in the corners and straightaways. They have much better snow traction than the stock Bridgestone run-flats, which are near worthless in any snow. You can check tirerack.com customer reviews on this tire, just about all owners will say the same thing about this tire's winter traction. In the rain there's absolutely no hydroplaning unlike the stock Bridgestone run-flats which felt a wee bit squirelly in the rain above 60mph. Tires have 60-70% tread left, these tires get relatively high mileage compared to other high performance summer tires. Tires have never been punctured, they're in great shape. In my opinion this set is better than the stock 161 wheels with run-flats in almost every way.... better traction in all weather conditions, lighter weight, custom and more upscale look, and gives the car a squat stance. I'll be ready to sell on Jan.19 when I get my new wheels, will monitor this thread until then, so I hope that's enough time for interested people to find this thread. Below are recent pics from last month. $1000 for the set, pick up only in Chicago, IL.

still for sale. Jan.19 is the earliest I can let them go. If you come by any earlier, I'd be willing to take you for a ride in my car on these wheels and tires so you know how they feel. After Jan.19, they will be off my car when I get my new set of Rota wheels/tires.
