Ahh yeah, new rims!

Check these babies out. They're sweet. They're made by Ronal - that's right folks, Ronal. Fine precision German engineering. They're the Ronal RT Wicked wheels to be precise. Wrapped in BF Goodrich rubber with a good deal of tread on them. They even came with free curb rash.

Guess what I paid.



Come on guess.


$100 greenbacks ladies (there are at least 2 female members, right?) and gents. Cold hard cash.

Kachow!!



Straight ballin'



One might even say 'Thuggish'




I'm gonna paint 'em black and use them as winter beaters. Now I had never heard of Ronal before in my life. So I went to Ebay to have a peek around. Well holy shit and hot dogs, these things are expensive! This homeboy deals in them on Ebay and wants $900 a set with no tires!! Here's the blurb from the ad:

"German made Ronal Rims are the factory manufacturer for BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Rolls Royce, Porsche and many more manufacturers, so these wheels are the simply the best in the world. "

And the link: 110152733128

OK, I don't believe the hype - its a sequel (Vb points to anyone who can place the 90s hip-hop band that used that lyric), but I still got a pretty good deal on some halfway decent rims with rubber and good tread for the winter.

Public Enemy



How about some extra points for the lyrics of the song?

Re: Ahh yeah, new rims!

Damn, I had the band as Snap! from "The Power" album. Looks like they stole it off Flava and the gang. Points to you Alpha.

Like I said, winter beaters.

Re: Ahh yeah, new rims!

I've been thinking about that very thing Travis. Once I paint them, I'll probably put them up (on Ebay.co.uk) and see what happens. Even if they go for 100-150 pounds that's still 2-3 times what I paid for them. Then that money will go to my new rear LCAs.
