They're like BBS lite (or heavy as it were, since they appear to use cheaper alloy that requires more material cross section). The equivelant BBS wheel weighs 20.5 lbs from BBS and 24 lbs from ASA.
From Tirerack.com
In 1990, ASA decided to build a state-of-the-art alloy wheel manufacturing facility. Knowing the complexity and challenge this presented, ASA went to BBS in Germany to tap the best technical knowledge in facility design, manufacturing processes and quality controls for producing high quality alloy wheels. Production began at the new facility in Jeywon, South Korea in March 1992.
Their agreement with BBS, a world leader in wheel technology, engineering and manufacturing with over two decades of success in the racing community and the high-end aftermarket worldwide, is still in effect today. This cooperative agreement gives ASA valuable access to technical and product information that BBS gains from their motorsports and manufacturing involvement.

that's pretty odd.
How many miles were on it? I was told by BMW that I was required to replace wheels in pairs?
