I gave up after a while. I have the same set in white, on my supra.

Now that I think about it, have you checked it for proper bolt pattern?? If I remember correctly, my supra is a mustang pattern- 4 1/2.

the owner that have these wheels he bought an 87 iroc back in 1997 and had these rims on the camaro he told me he tooked them cause they did not go with a white car, and he bought the original irocs and he put these rims in storage ever since, so i know they will fit the car.

thanks. tony.

Re: AER American Racing Wheel's? Help!

Looks like you need to bark up the Mustang tree... Saleen used them.
http://www.saleenclubofamerica.com/SCOATech/87-93.htm

I'm sure searching in that direction you'll find the actual name/model number somewhere.

This says they were #223... maybe.

Re: AER American Racing Wheel's? Help!

Ok Tony..i should be able to solve your problem..lol

YOUR wheels..are NOT American Racing. They are made by a brand called RONAL. Here is a pic of Ronal Wheels i found, and they are IDENTICAL to the ones you have posted. I think you wheels must have random "makeshift" AER caps.



And these wheels here...are the American Racing Wheels you must think you had. Easy to mix up. But this wheel is called the American Racing Rebel i believe.



Im conviced dude...look at the wheel you have..and the first wheel pic i posted...you have a set of Ronal wheels there.

Re: AER American Racing Wheel's? Help!

hey Longmire92RS, if you look at the R9's in your pic and you look at mine, there are not the same lip, cause american racing made some of these for the 80's saleens, or so.

http://www.saleenclubofamerica.com/SCOATech/87-93.htm

look under "American Racing 5-spoke" they look like those.

Thanks, Tony.
