Keep in mind that for the S2k, the lip on the actual wheels will not be nearly as deep as the wheels pictured. I know that depending on the wheel, this can change the overall perception of it drastically.

In any case, between the two, my vote goes for the ASA ar1. Good luck!

Hey Ray, I actually kinda like the Enkeis... but they look HEAVY, which I think goes against the spirit of the S2k. Hence, I too will endorse the ASA's. The Enkei's kinda look like knockoff Volk GT-N's(?).

Ps, your car sounds mean

actully those ar1's look like the bbs wheels, i forget which one's, but there the one's you see most common on s2k's. I'd go with those.

yeah the Enkie is pretty much a knock off. i'm leaning towards the ASA wheels but i can get a great deal on the Enkie's.

and the ASA's are copies of the RGR. they are licenced by BBS.

thanks Nate.

I like the ASA's. But I thought the black face ar1's only come in a specific size? No stagger fit? Good luck Ray.
