Has anyone purchased an Aspec 405 (JCW GP replica in 17"). I am thinking seriously of purchasing as I really like this wheel.

 

+1

 

Thinking about picking a set up from Apsec as well. Hoping there as nice as they look.

 

Rock, paper, scissors to see who orders first?

 

Placed my order today.

 

 

Think I will fit with kumho h16 in 215/45/17s.

 

Are they on yet?
I've been staring at their website for the past week, wondering if I should pull the trigger. (My wife even said she like them!)

 

Had them put on today. Stunning! I'll take some pics tomorrow and post.

 

See new sig pic and gallery. The Kumhos in 215/45/17 are fairly "hefty" in appearance but give a smooth comfortable ride.

 

Looks sharp!

Any trouble with anything?
Did you reuse your factory bolts or need rings?
I'm looking at these..

 

Ive had my eye on those as well.

 

No issues. Factory bolts fine and no rings needed but you should ask aspec regarding the wheels you want.

 

Good to hear.
I pulled the trigger this afternoon. Ordering some tires from Tirerack tomorrow.
Can't wait! Pics as soon as they're on

 

Lots of pics!

 

Specs? Weight?

 

According to the specs on their website, the ones I ordered are 17x7, 42mm offset, 56.1 mm bore. I thought I read somewhere that they were 20 lbs, but now I can't find it.
I'll throw them on the bathroom scale before I take them to get the tires mounted.
I ordered some Pirelli P Zero Run Flats this morning in 205/45-17. They were only $139 each. My wife commutes 100 miles a day, and I want to keep the peace-of-mind that she'll be able to make it home every night with the RF's.

 

Any updates/pics??

 

Pretty sharp.

 

The man in brown dropped them off last night!
They made it here without any issues. They were packaged well, multiple layer of cardboard and foam wrap. They had a plastic ring over the outer lip to protect the finish.
First off, they look awesome!

I got a little nervous when they didn't have the Mini emblems on them, but I found them in a pouch in the bottom of one of the boxes. (some assembly required)

Overall, I think the finish looks good, all the machined surfaces look good as well, nothing sloppy.
The only thing I'm disappointed with so far is the weight. They are 21lbs each according to my bathroom scale. (the specs said they were 20)
Oh well, in the scheme of things it isn't a big deal. I didn't expect them to weigh 15lbs each!
I'll have more info and pics after they get mounted. Hopefully I can get them done for this weekend.

 

Does anyone know the weight of the actual JCW wheels?

 

According to the Mini2 site, the R112s are 23.1 lbs each.

Let us know if the small weight difference is noticable.

 

I doubt it will be. Thats impressive that it is so close.

 

A-Spec = Jun

I've ordered from him before. The wheels have had zero issues in 9 months. My buddy put black ones on his JCW Coupe and he has had zero issues. They look great, pretty strong SO FAR considering how many potholes I've gone over in NYC. They go right on like OEM wheels without any extra hardware. For the price its tough to find a better deal.
