Become a real-life “Lord of the Bling” with Asanti Chrome Rims and the swipe of a credit card. Asanti wheels and rims are some serious-looking units, mainly because of their large urban sizes and appearance. It’s not surprising, then, that they’ve come to rule over the urban wheel world in many places. If you want to change the look of your average-Joe ride and turn it into a serious bling machine, then perhaps you need to look at Asanti before most any other wheel or rim maker.

Going larger still. Asanti wheels and rims aren’t for people who want a standard-size wheel of maybe 16 or 17 inches. In fact, you’d be hard-pressed to find such an insignificant-looking size as 17 inches anywhere in the Asanti universe. In that place, you start at 20 inches and get larger still, all the way up to some really impressive 26 inch units.

Rolling on down the road. Rims and wheels are really the same thing, most of the time. In urban street rides, the preferred term is “rims” when you’re describing a set of wheels on your ride. On very rare occasions, the way a wheel is made will warrant the technical name “rim,” but that’s almost never the case. What’s for sure, though, is that you can be laughed at if you’re calling your 20 inchers “wheels,” rather than “dubs.”

Put in, take out. Years ago, the only material for Asanti Wheels was steel. It didn’t rust, and it could take a pretty good beating. But steel was heavy, and that contributed to a car’s weight, overall. As a compromise between weight and utility, though, steel was the choice.

Going exotic. Nowadays, most custom wheels are made of aluminum or other alloys, like magnesium or titanium. One reason is that they’re lighter. This cuts down on rotating weight and the total heft of a car. This not only can help improve speed (the car weighs less and has less to haul), but the colors and styles possible when a wheel is made of a metal alloy are practically limitless.

Sticking to it. Wheels or rims are, for the most part, fastened to a hub through the use of bolts. The general rule these days is that four to five bolts will be called for in most applications, though some specialty rims may use 8 or more of them. Asanti Wheels and Asanti Rims generally go with around 5.

Looking good’s never been easier. Asanti rims and wheels have made it easier than ever to immediately improve the look and appearance of even the most plain-looking car out there, including more than a few station wagons. Your car can look like it just came out of a West Coast design studio pretty quickly when a set of Asanti rims get bolted on. And their wheels all combine great performance with urban fashion bling, so the dubs you sport today will look nice for a long time.

Rolling on out. Even if high fashion isn’t your biggest concern a set of Asanti wheels can’t help but give you street credibility and fashion with little or no real effort. Sizes and styles vary wildly, so find the ones right for the statement you want to make and then step beck while Asanti Wheels
