Ronal Wheels

[jbkilla213]

I'm just wondering if anyone knows the backspacing on the Ronal Wheels off of the 91-92 Firehawk wheels, because i know they're 17x9.5 and someone with a 91 Firebird bought them and they bolt right on and I want to buy American Racing Torq Thrust IIs 17x9.5 and so i'm trying to find the backspacing so I can buy ones that will go on without spacers or sitting funny. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

I know that the wheels I am getting are 17x9 with 0 offset... you should know that U-turns wont be as easy with 17x9.5 ..... I am willing to bet that the ronals are zero offset too

I have 17x9.5 TT II's on my car. You'll need 5.5" backspace but be prepared to do some grinding on the front side of your outer tie rod ends for clearance. There is no way around this. It's best to start out with brand new tie rod ends and then get your car aligned once you're done. Oh, one more thing, if you're told that ARE doesn't make 17x9.5 TT II's with 5.5" backspace, give ARE a call and they'll give you the part #.
