Are those inserts white or black? They look white but it could just be the pic I guess

Nick I was just gettin ready to post that I just ordered my Ronals and then I see your post.
Those rims look awesome on your car. What kind of tires did you get? Also, if you ordered your wheels from hawks, how long did delivery take?
By the way , I found a sweet deal on tires at www.onlinetires.com -- 275/40/17 BFG CompT/A HR4 $70 each!!!

hey nick , they look good , and the car isnt that high , but i know you wont lower it so i wont bug you about that . As for the rims , they are all silver but the painted ones with the black insert were like 500 more just painted black inserts .
nick what size did you go with on the fronts.

that was the point of why i bought these rims. They like the stock 91-92 z28 wheels, but with bigger spokes, deeper dish, wider and bigger

they look good, weird seeing them all silver. I guess just not used to it. here is a thought. aren't the center caps on the 91-92z wheels the same size as the ones on those ronals? if so run the camaro center cap for a little extra touch. plus that would break up the all silver with a little black and red accent.

Looks great. I am going with silver too. I refuse to pay that much more for painted inserts. Anyway, why the different tire size up front? I'm going with 275-40-17 all the way around.

Yep why the hell would someone pay extra 400 bucks for black inserts... Stupid if u ask me, ill prob do it myself. Also spokes dont look that wide in person. I think its the pics. Also i didnt go with 275 up front because of rubbing and that kinda stuff

I think they look good how they are and i wouldnt lower it either unless you want it to ride like ****. I say just tint the windows and fix up the motor and get some tubular lca's and panhard bar.

I also bought a set of Ronals with silver spoke inserts because $100 per wheel for the black was too much money for me to fork over. I'm thinking a local paint shop could probably get the job done for a lot less than $400. What I like best about the Ronals is that they look good on Birds and Camaros alike. Some wheels tend to look good on one but not the other.
P.S. anybody in Canada wanting the Ronals should call TireWorks in Mississauga Ont. I ordered mine from them and the total cost (including shipping to Sask) was $1300 Canadian. A bit of a wait but worth it to replace my stock puny 14 inch Turbo Casts.

get the inserts painted black... it's not just your pics, every time I see a car with those wheels that don't have the inserts painted, the spokes look big.
