    ASA AR1 Fitment Advice

    I'm considering a set of 18" ASA AR1 wheels for my BMW M Roadster's street wheel setup - the Roadstars need some refinishing and will be getting the track day tires.

    What would be the recommended wheel/tire setup for these rims? I'll probably keep stock tire widths in 18" sizes - 225/40R18 front // 255/35R18 rear. I'd like a staggered setup with deep dish rims in the rear, but I can't find anything on Tire Rack for the AR1's besides an 18x8 square setup.

    Any suggestions?

    I don't understand the question. You're asking what the recommended wheel setup is for a set of rims that you've already established are 18x8?

    Those wheels will have awful fitment in the rear on your car. You'd need at least a 30mm spacer to make it look even close to decent.
