I got a new set of RONAL wheels for the 91 TR. They are super cool looking but I had to have the calipers painted red now that they are visible. The car is now on 17" and the ride is much better than the 16". This a nice birthday present from Ronal. My TR is now done at my taste. I just need a better photographer to capture these nice rims.

2nd that! !!!! Happy Birthday !!!! How old are you now...21? Not that I want to know, its the ladies who keep asking!! Let me see if I can Fed-ex a cake filled with Pirelli Girls to the ranch for your party. That should kick start the ticker!! BTW the rims look P.I.M.P !! Real nice look for the TR! Have you upgraded the Brakes or are they still stock?
Roland - they are as good looking as you said they would be. I like 'em. Suggest not lending them to glenn else there will be grass stains all over them Congrats!
Ro Ro Happy Birthday! Hope you have a fun one. I can't wait to come hang out with you guys again. I plan on leaving Iowa on Thursday morning and staying 1 night with my sister in KC then meeting a friend of mine in Denver for a night. Then I should be available to run the pits at PPIR for you and J. Ferrari. Let me know if you need anything from Iowa, (I am not sure if the corn is ready yet.) However I am sure that I could find something for you for your birthday!!
Thanks Guys, Pimp, send the cake with the Pirelli girls. I'm like Sammy, can't drive 55 and I hope for many more years. Mike, don't worry, these rims will stay here away from Glenn, grass doesn't look cool on these rims. Matt, we have room in our crew at PPIR, comon down. Happy 4th to all Roland F40LM
Those rims look pretty nice. So in the next Mother Wax commercial are going to be standing by the TR?
I'm still waiting for a call to replace Arnold !!! That should be the next step... But if Mothers wants the TR, I'm game or anyone else. Roland F40LM
Roland, I like the wheels! Can you tell me which ones they are? I was on Ronals website, and couldn't tell for sure. Are they the RT's or the LZ's?? thanks!!!!
The wheels shown are the Ronal LZ, 2 pc wheels, aluminum/titanium modular wheels. Ronal makes the wheels in Germany, and these wheels are the same as Lorinser, Brabus, Hartge, Alpina, etc....We make their wheels as well. We offer the LZ in 17-19" sizes, and you can see them on different Ferrari's at www.ronalusa.com INDEX of CARS SECTION, ...Ferrari..... .....and you might want to look at Corvette section too for some ideas of CUSTOMIZED PAINTED WHEELS WHEEL STYLES SECTION, LZ for more options. IM or 800-899-1212 for ???
Just a few interesting remarks, beside the great look, I discover that the TR feels much easier to drive. The no power steering seems to be a lesser trouble and the ride is way smoother. Stepping to a 17" wheel made the difference. The Pirelli Rosso are the way to go, don't cut corner with a cheaper tire. Even my wife noticed the difference, that says it all hahaha!! Also, the car is quieter and I can hear even better my sport exhaust...That's very cool. Thanks Gary for getting me the right wheel, you were right on the money! Roland F40LM
Roland is way too busy keeping her clean and presentable. One could eat off of the engine bay if so inclined. Actually, one could eat a human turd and be just fine health-wise, but who would want to do so? That TR is one gorgeous machine, especially with the new rims. If the price is right, I may step up to the plate as well. The 550 is enough of a different body style that it would not be goofy to have the same model of wheel as His Majesty.
Eat a turd? Timpy is either on or off the meds, I'm just not sure which. Hmmm and your repy was, "Ummmm... are rooms are to far." Doh!
Hahaha. Happy birthday Roland! If you need a photographer to help capture the beauty of those rims on the TR, let me know!
Sheldon, you always took great shots fom the LM in Canada, come down here and have a ball with the TR. Timphy, his majesty is OK with you having similar rims....just park behind the barn, by the tractor... Sorry for being to busy at the ranch to take the TR out.. Got to have the place ready for the BBQ. I'll take the TR out on Friday to Mead raceway for my school day. Got to look cool for the Ford GT that's coming. AC, stop by Friday and bring your camera. I'll wear a yellow suit to match the GT40. Roland F40LM
Arghhhhhhh!!!!!!! I contacted Ronal and they can't get em for knock offs!!!!! Roland, if you get any tips on wheels let me know Randy
I'll contact Gave Helms at Scuderia Rampante and see what could be done to convert your TR into a 5 lug . Roland F40LM
Howdy Chris, only you will come up with one like that hahaha!!! Take care and let me know if you'll be at Gateway end of Sept. What about New Orleans this year ? Roland F40LM
