    I only knew of the r36 from the 98-00 Chevrolet Tahoe Limited. But just now I find out Ronal was a big wheel company that I had seen in my childhood of the 80s and 90s. If I could afford 17" x 8" 5 x 5" r36, if they exist. I would grab 12 wheels. To daily drive, to destroy tires, and to blast high speed on freeways at night. On a 88-98 c1500 scsb. Hell, even with a home built 4.3 turbo like a Typhoon or Syclone. My list on engines and drivetrains can go on for a bit.

    The Ronal Turbo was not introduced as the R10. They order is Turbo Phase 1s :these ones have a smooth face with no logo: ..then the Turbo Phase 2s..and then the R10. Note, you cannot get the newer R10s in the original Phase 1 or Phase 2 offsets either. That is what makes the R10s less desirable. A set of Phase 1s make BBS RSs look common. they are so rare.
