For EEA related questions, it is better to post in the dedicated EEA section than here.

The rules for EEA nationals and their family members are different from the UK immigration rules you might be familiar with.

Which nationality is your wife? Romanians and Bulgarians have still some restrictions on their activities in the UK.

What is your wife doing in the UK? working? studying? self-sufficient? She will need to exercise EU treaty rights, in order for you to be able to apply for a Residence card.

You should be aware that the UKBA might question your relationship as Asian marrying a EEA national (in particular Eastern European one) when their current leave in the UK is about to expire, is flagged in many cases as a suspicious sham marriage so the HO might be asking for additional evidence in case they suspect your marriage.
