Anybody have 17" ASA AR1?

If you have the 17" ASA AR1s on, could you please post some pictures? (I already know most people here think 17" is too small.) Thanks.

I dont' have it, but just be careful man, anything less than 19" look puny because of the lip on the ar-1s...

Yea that is why I'm looking for some pics. I'm trying to decide between 161s and AR1s. I'm not into big wheels mainly because of the performance hit. When I ditch these runflats, I don't want to cancel out the benefits by getting a heavier wheel.

Look into 18" CSL, the prices will be reasonable, and the weight will probably be less than the 161's. You can also consider OZ superleggerra, very light, quality, and good price.

Edit: I mention CSL style, because it does not have a lip, and would look fine in 18".
