Wheel choices

Hi. I am a Newbie. I've sold my 17 inch S-lites with Pirellis and am going to a 16 inch wheel..I think the ASA JS1 in white, because I have a BRG Mini S with white top and mirrors. I'll be running all season nonrunflats for a softer ride.

Any opinions on the ASA J1 wheels? I like the star pattern such as those or the OEM R83's.

Any other suggested wheels with the star pattern for everyday use?

The ASA JS1 comes in silver not white. 16x7" $109 each 18 pounds, +42mm offset
LP Cast/ shot peened contruction, 15x7 and 17x7 also available
