ronals are over-rated.

dont really suit a corsa anyway, mk1 golf maybe.

I blame you for starting the Euro trend..
Those wheels have been around for years, hence the outdated look. They have been put on Corsa's many millions of times before.

As for the offset. I prefer my car to go where I want it to go, rather than tramline into the kerb... Scrubbing isn't the issue here....


Dont think i've ever seen any in this country but then im not saying there isnt any.
Although i quite believe they have been doing it for years abroad but its rare over here.

Your car will tramline if you have et45 and 17 or bigger on there due to the size of the tyre.

Just looks wrong on a Corsa IMO...
And i REALLY dislike the fact that it says "turbo" on them! Looks extremely tacky!

They look ace on Poundies but rubbish on that GSi, which is otherwise standard, too high, has orange repeaters, a huge reg plate and boy racer mirrors.

Ronal is the name of the manufacturer of the wheel in question rather than the model of rim as some people may have thought.

Ronal have made a great number of styles and sizes of wheel for various applications for many years and most manufacturers have sourced their OE rims from Ronal, so it seems a little unfair to condemn the name as something shamefull.

the ronals only look crap on the gsi because it hasnt been slammed, lower with clear sides would be major difference imo
