ronal ls with spacers?

[Falconer]

Anyone with pictures?

I just wanted to point out that the spacer you posted would not give your wheel hubcentric-ness even though it was posted as hubcentric, it just happens to have a 57.1mm bore. At 5mm it does not matter which spacer you choose with ronal LS, your wheel will not know the difference.

[Mr. Burns]

Good point, didn't think of that. Thx.
Just a non- specific universal 5mm otherwise?

[LJ851]

Cb on e30 is 57.1 as is the cb on a Ronal Ls no?

Mine are but they have a large inner chamfer at the base so very little engages with the hub. With a 5mm spacer it no longer will engage with the hubcentric portion of the hub and a 5mm spacer is too thin to be internally and externally hubcentic itself.

bumping this way from the dead...

I have Ronal Ls's with 225/50/15's lowered on GC's.

I previously had 16x8 wheels with a 0 offset, which made me roll my fenders ALOT...which is now offering the impression that I have alot of room to spare even with the 225's in teh back.

I'm order some hubcentric 5mm spacers and hope this will give the look I want.

I am 99.9% sure your wheels will not be hubcentric with those spacers.

i know that **x7.5 et 25 wheels can fit 235 tires with rolled fenders, so theoretically **x7.5 et20 with 225s is the same distance from the fender and should fit.

Yes, 15x7.5 et25 is correct.

I guess I'll have to get the tires mounted and see how much room I have for spacers in the rear. ~5mm is what I was thinking. I'm not too concerned about the fronts.

I bought 5mm H&R spacers for my BBS
will install them tomorow and post some pics
with more than 10mm I think it would look bad

[ACHTUNG]

15x7.5 et25 right?

id say with a 225, you dont want to go any wider in the front, and maybe only 5mm or so in the back. it may not look close, but you still might get rub with fenders rolled unless you have super stiff suspension.

that's almost the same wheel as original BBS 7x15 Et24...
they are far too much under the arches, especially in the rear

Which is why I want to see a picture of them pushed out a little (especially the rears.)

I'd like to know what size spacers are ideal to get a more flush look with 225/45 size tires. Maybe I'll ask Mystical.

would like to see this too... running a 225/50 on my 15x7 ronals. Back tucking tire now and not rubbing. I trimmed the fender a bit just in case and would like to pull them out a little.

Yeah, I'm going to be running 225/45/15's.

Anyone running spacers on their LS's????

[Ant_e30]

a suggestion to check for rubbing (i do this on all my cars when testing fitment) -

Jack the car up and put it on stands (or leave it on a good jack, whatever haha)
Get a second jack and jack the wheel up indepedantly.

this'll show you where it goes in it's travel motion and you can see how much room you have etc.
