I am looking to put black wheels on a white car in the future and always liked the simplicity and cleaning practicality of a 5-spoke design. I also like the TD Pro Race 1.2 but how do you think they compare to these Ronals at a similar price?....



Well, I went for these instead of the TDs and they arrived today. The 8J was an ET35 which just a tad too aggressive an offset for me but the 7.5J width was ET45 which may be better. They are 10.2 kg in naked form.

Very nice indeed, Arthur  :congrats: :congrats: :congrats: :congrats:

It maintains the Monza's form rather than losing it in blackness.

A Warm Welcome to the forum too  :drinking:

thanks!  It is a metallic paint so I think that makes it look better than a flat paint.

God that's some exposed rim there, keep that puppy away from them kerbs matey. What's up with your friends Lupo. Really love them little cars but that is without doubt the worst example I have ever seen, is that "pure" rust on that bonnet?

People really buy a lovely car and (on purpose, with full knowledge of what their doing) make it look s**t, hence the "rat look" as you call it. God help me!!

They look really good. Would look better on my car, though! :grin:

If I ever get a job I'm gonna save some pennies and get a set of these to go back OEM.
