Thanks to Jason I have the spacers I need to fit the Ronal rims so I gave one a try to see how it looks. I kind of like it so just need some longer wheel bolts now and a set of tyres. I do have a set of dished MiMs going spare which I thought about spraying satin black?

I can put the split rims away till the spring.

I really like the Ronal wheels, how thick is the spacer you are using? And what is the size of the wheels?

The baur has come to a halt at the mo due to cold weather.
Gets to cold to work onwhere it is.
Come new year will pull finger out and get it ready and maybe a respray.
Not that it needs it but just to give it more wow facter.

Leave 'em black. I think they will look awesome in Gloss Black with lots of Laquer.

If your car was a standard period car, then i would say a no go, but its not so i think they will look pretty cool.

I got some dodgy DTM mirrors on my Violet car. Hate them !!!!

I think they look really nice and suit the era of the car. Lots of period Opel, VW & BMW used them iirc.

I just need to get fittings to mount them properly.
