Before and After - which style is best?

Set screw holding the center cap is the give away, Ronal LS or ACT they came from same mold.

Are those Ronal LS or 15" weaves? They look great!

I know this is going to sound pathetic but I don't know. The lip on these is very deep. It is polished. I have a set of 15" euro weaves and the lip is half of what these rims are. I asked the PO and he said he didn't know.

Does anyone know how I can determine what they are? I would also like to know the offset so I can properly fit a tire to these and stop the rubbing. He ran 215/50. I trust him in his recommendation, his e30s are super clean and nice, he does things the right way; but on my ix these rims rub like crazy with a 225. My euro weaves had 225 on them and didn't rub at all. So I am a little worried would 215 be enough of a drop, or should I buy a 205 just to be safe?

Look like Ronal's with polished lips, but they could be ACT's as well.

Much better. All wheels should be silver, like God intended them to be!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks guys. I agree those new rims are sharp and add a touch of shine and appeal to the car it was missing. Now to figure out the Damn correct tire size. Any help with tire fitment?

Well done. Love the new wheels
Contrast is important, part of why I can't stand black wheels on 99% of cars.

Your car looks great!

After is infinitely better. That gray color doesn't work with red.

Another view of the new wheels. They look great in person. The grey on the euro weaves is chipping and coming off, which looks horrible up close.

I recently picked up a new set of rims from a great guy in New York. Today I had a set of 225/50 15 Kumho put on, this replaced my 3 wheel euro weave/1 regular weave (horribly painted gray) set up I had on Toyo 225/50 15s.
Which do you guys like the old gray set up or the new shinny set up?

Side note the new set up rubs, but the same size tire never rubbed not once. I might have to take the hit and buy a smaller tire if I stick with the new set up.
