They have a variety of finishes, including a nice looking black chrome.

And thanks for the input on manufacturer, I do appreciate it but the choice is mostly much made already. Just finalizing the order.

Any input on my wheel width choices to match the tire sizes?

You done good on matching up the sizes of the rims and tires, buldges and heights.

The 255 / 30 / 19 on the front is 25.1 tall and has a 10.2 section on a 9" rim

The 305 / 25 / 20 on the front is 26.2 tall and has a 12.1 section on a 11" rim

Perfect.

What I am concerned about is your front backspace. With our DSE frame projects, we use a 6.2" BS on a 10" wheel, so to maintain your proper front space, you are going to need a 5.2" BS on a 9" wheel

Be careful with black chrome, my experiance with black chrome is it scrathes super easy if you look at it to hard! Wipe it with a towel, ruined! To delicate for me.

I figured out why I like them so much. They are identical to the Fesler FS904 wheels I wanted to order eventually. Are Asanti's cheaper then the Feslers?
