    The Ronals looks great in person. I've never seen another set like that either. I wish I had another E30 so I had an excuse to buy them back.



    As for the KT1s, I really like those too.

    So...

    Many other people have silver centers because: they look way better than black centers.

    Not trying to down talk you, or come off condescending at all. I'm just saying I think that silver centers would make it look WAY better... also "so many other people have it".. how many of those are around where you live........ probably none.
    No harm, no foul. I think the issue at hand is I want something bigger and wider. While the Ronals are a great OEM+ wheel, I've grown tired of them and want something more aggresive...hence the KT1s.

    I'll let the next owner decide what to do with them.

    Regardless, still a very reasonable price for a sick wheel.

    I think I paid $240 a peice for mine. $229 seems a little better, still a good price.

    $199 a wheel! damn they did come down!

    I don't know man, it would be a tough choice. I love my KT1's, just not crazy about the front wheels sticking out past the fenders, other then that, I love them. Ronal is just a great looking wheel all around. I agree that if yours were silver, they would look hot IMO.

    I'm actually considering buying 2 7.5's for up front and selling my front 9's. I first said that I didn't like the staggered look, but I can't find another 16" wheel I like, except Type A's, and the only 15" I'd go with is a Ronal.

    Honestly, it's up to you, and that's a tough choice. Being's that your Ronal's are black in the center, I say KT1's, if your Ronal's were silver, I'd say roll the Ronal's.
