Default Ronal R28's

<center><img src="http://www.ronalusa.com/wheels/opt-images/r28/r28-5lug.jpg"></center><p>
Anyone here have experience with these wheels? I was looking at the 17x8.5" for winter use.

What offset is required for a b5 s4 with an alcon front brake kit? I found a set with an offset of et34 and would like to know if they will clear.

Thanks

Default That's an AWFULLY wide wheel for a winter tire.

Why not go a little narrower to improve winter performance. I'm assuming you're in the snow belt...

Default Yes - most people who ran them with B5s put 235s on.

I loved the look but they are a heavy wheel too at 28lbs. Call Gary at Ronel - he is experienced enough to tell you if they will fit your setup.

Default Anyone have pictures with these rims on stock sport suspension with 235/40 tires?

I searched but could not find anything that specifically referenced sport suspension. Thanks.

Default My 90 is a Sport 90 Quattro and was used for the Ronal photo shoot.

I have now switched to 5 lug hubs with 17" wheels.<ul><li><a href="http://www.ronalusa.com/cars/audi_90_quattro.html">http://www.ronalusa.com/cars/audi_90_quattro.html</a</li></ul>
