I've seen similar ones to those on eBay. Have a check there.

Don't know if they are coming from UK though?

[Kedge]

Finally someone mentioned something about the wheels im planning on getting! Ronal LS's,these wheels are awesome,very similar to BBS crosspokes,but with a nice deep dish, and a lot more of a shine to them. And you can get them for around Ԛ£75 per wheel, or for around Ԛ£550-Ԛ£600 with 205/55/15 tires as ive been quoted.

This place is where ive been planning on getting mine , http://www.raceandroad.com/ . Very nice people, and their the offical Ronal dealers in the UK, they have good stock,or they take about a week to get in from Germany

Pretty much everything you need to know about these wheels

Oh and here the ebay link with some selling now, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... eName=WDVW some good pictures there. Although you can get them cheaper new i think :s

[Jhonno]

Ronal LS are pretty nice, bit heavier than BBS tho..

I've seen them for sale new in the uk mainly on ebay

[CaesarBob]

Thought i'd heard these were now obsolete, maybe wrong tho if Swirly has looked into this more.

I like these, purely for the shiney deep dish... but the centre caps have always bothered me. They don't seem to fit correctly and don't quite carry off the pattern of the spokes right... maybe it's just me being picky.

I still like them though...

[Guest]

they're really nice. I like the rondell 0058 (very similar) too...I think South West Tyres in Clevedon can get both...

[SwirlyE30]

CaesarBob - I believe that Ronal stopped making these a while back mate. Although they are still readily availble (Only from a few companys though) , so weather they still make them, or theres just a lot of stock i dont know. But you can easily get them at the moment.

They used to make a 16" versionl,shame they dont anymore,they would look awesome.

Geeman- Yeh i thought that a few times when i saw pictures of them. Although some seem to be a very good fit. Maybe it was just a certain batch? :S
Either way, awesome wheels. Something a bit differnt,but still look like your normal "15 BBS. The center badges are also interchangable so you can stick a BBS one in, or a BMW badge

i like my vw's and have seen these wheels a few times at vw shows. a mate of mine owns a alloy wheel place,i'm quite sure he may be able to help
http://www.styledynamix.co.uk/
he imports wheels and gets hold of rare ones

[SwirlyE30]

Yeh i also emailed the bloke at http://www.styledynamix.co.uk/
and he said he can get them quite easily as well. Im not sure theres many others places that sell them. But these seem to be the best

[Simon13]

could he get the 16 inch ones mentioned? these would sell like hot cakes on here i recon! i'd have to have a set!

[SwirlyE30]

Dont think so mate. You can ask, although i think they stopped making them a long time ago. Over on R3vlimited.com they talk a lot about them and they have never been able to get the 16's . It would be awesome if you were able to get them in 16 but i dont think ya can

[Guest]

has anyone got any pics of these on a car? They look nice, but like u say 16s would be mucho nice.

[dips346]

[SwirlyE30]

Heres a few pictures of them on some cars. Hope this helps

[topspark]

Look at these beauty's.

Need a fancy tool to get centre caps off as well!!

[topspark]

Also found a website which sell the 16" Ronal LS , But dont know if they have they available?

[MartinSE]

Can anyone tell me how much heavier than the BBS's they are? Do you people think they might be less good quality? They look stunning!

[CaesarBob]

Those rims would look great with some 9.5 x 16's on the rear. Or if your after real old skool - a set of these ...

[Ziggy]

heeeeell yeah! You know you want em...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... eName=WDVW

[Simon13]

Martin Ronal made the original alpina rims so if you ask me their wheels are pukka. Just mailed about the 16's but in a sensible 8.5 wide

[Simon13]

mail bounced so i'm not sure if they exist!

[SwirlyE30]

Yeh them last night but got an instant Delievry Fail Notification thing, so im not sure.... I dont think the wheels are available tbh, ive never seen on any site/forum a car with some, only people saying they wish they had them lol.

And yeh i think the wheels are pretty pukka quality,never heard any stories about problems.

[Simon13]

looking through the site they have new up to date rims on there. I'll phone them 2moro.

[MartinSE]

I'm trying to find some place here in sweden who could get hold of a set of 15". Bin after a set of BBS's for a long time but they are hard to find (imaculate condition that is).

does the extra half inch on the rondels make any difference to the driving characteristics at all?

cheers.

[Simon13]

Phoned that place 3 times and got the same answer phone messege each time, me thinks they is made up innit?!
Martin the extra half inch won't make alot of difference really

[SwirlyE30]

Yeh Si,if they have an email addy that bounces (For you and me at least, so obviously its not a problem at my end) , and they dont awnser the phone maybe its either cr*p ,or they just arnt in bussiness anymore. Either way, a set of 16"s would of looked awesome

[6potWil6pot]

Ive just read this thread and thought how completely bad @$$ 16" x spoke rims would be
Still can always dream!

[Karan]

guess whats goin on the project wil

[6potWil6pot]

Yes but thats 5 stud! Way above us 4 stud losers!
