I'm not sure if they're the same as Chris's. I want to say Ronals?

Oh yes! Of course they are. I bought them off an old guy for £60. Shame they're not 4x100 :(

You'll make that back and some I'd have thought dude!

Mine are indeed Ronals, flat fronted spokes though.

:) Should be getting a refurb pretty soon, looking for something less rare for rallying on too, but still needs to be pimp...

Just buy another set mate - they're not massively rare when you find out what the model of the wheel is. Although the HAAS colour detailing to the inside of the spoke is pimper than most ;)

Also, them 15" ATS classic's are very nice - rare to find them in this size, theyre usually 13's

The spare set I have arn't the same, though they are close. Offset I think is the only difference, but the genuine ones have "Volvo" in the casting unlike the others... not that anyone see's as it's behind the centre cap!
