Looks great!
This is a great how-to.
May I also suggest putting on some anti-seize compound on the wheels (where the wheel contacts the hub) before bolting in the wheel? This will prevent wheels from seizing onto the hub after the harsh winter.

on a side note. that little bolt that you removed from the rotor assembly does not need to be reinstalled. it must be removed to put pretty much all after market wheels on the car. i was told its for use during assembly of the car but nothing after the car is done being built

I think the Sport Edition A7's that some of us went with for $99 are a knock off of those ASA ones, as they look almost identical. Anyways, did you receive centering rings with those? I'm just curious what the size was on those rings. When mounting my winters I noticed that the centering ring did not fit perfectly on the car hub. I bolted the rims on thinking it would force the rings on the hub, but it just appears to have pushed the rings on as much as possible, I still don't think they are flush. I'm hoping they didn't send me one size to small.
Anyone mounting the ASA's or A7's want to chime in?
Also did anyone notice that the offset on these rims push the rim out? I actually like the look of the wheels pushed out further, I wish that was the case with the summers. Much more aggressive filled out look, too bad the rims don't look anywhere near as good as O.E. 19's.

yea, seem like the ones i saw on tirerack are knock-offs.
i managed not to go with tirerack and bought local.
