Ronal LZ-VT wheels fitment

Hello everyone,

I purchased a set of 18X9.5 & 19X10 Ronal LZ wheels for my 91 Camaro with OE rear end. The seller said they has 45 offset. He has them on his 2004 Z06. I searched here before I bought them and according to others own experience, they manage to fit the wheels with some 2" adapters all around! I test fitted mine today and obviously they rub on the inner wheelwell and on my boxed control arm... They seem to be pretty flush without tires. I can't imagine them with wide tires & 2" adapters?!? Any one experienced similar wheel size with the same offset?

thanks for your time

Does it make things more exciting to work in the road?

Re: Ronal LZ-VT wheels fitment

Well, I didn't complete the install since I am worried for the wheels to stick out to far! When I tried it, I noticed it was hitting the wheelwell and lower control arm. As for running adapters I believe the rim will look out of place? I am not in a mood of wasting money in tires and later find out it looks bad...

If nobody has experience with this particular setup 18X9.5 & 19X10 with +45mm offset, I will probably sell them and wait for Hawk's 18" Ronal's...

That's probably your best path. Tires sticking out past the body looked jakey back in the day, and that hasn't changed since.

@91z28ss I have a 92 RS and running C6 Corvette 2005-2013 style wheels in Chrome 19x10 +56 square with nitto invo 285x30x19 front nitto invo 305x30x19 rear 2in spacer up front may xchange for 1.75 for more tuck ,
I just swapped the rear to 4th gen so I will see what if any spacer is needed. The 305x30x19 will fit in the front as well, when the 285 wear out will put 305x30x19 up front

Oh Nice! I would like to see some pics if possible! I searched for the 1.75 spacers but they are hard to find, specially with the hubcentric one's! Where did you bought yours?
