Default Roh wheels

I found these classic looking wheels. I'm thinking 18X9's. I have not been able to figure what backspacing is available or if the bolt pattern will fit our cars.




Sorry about the Cobra, but I could not find a Vette with them. They are available in a "Black Ice" as shown above or Chrome finish.
I've never heard of ROH, what type of quality are these things and are they available to fit C3's?

74 vert,
ROH = Rubery Owen Holdings, a South Australian Company that makes "mag" wheels. Yep, looks like they're made Down Under and they surely have a web site that will give you more info.

Regards from Down Under

Thanks for the leads John. I found their wheel web site.
http://www.roh.com.au/

They make wheels for a variety of customers, including GM and others.

It appears to be a well established company producing fine wheels. I'm going to contact them for info. Looks like the Vert is going global, German Bilstein shocks and perhaps Australian someday, ROH wheels. NCRS guys are going to :eek:

:seeya

My guess is you'll need adapters to run these as they probably dont make them in offsets to fit older cars.

The Cobra in the picture probably has adapters too.

ROH is a well established company. They made the rims for the 90's Impala SS for GM.

The Cobra in the picture most likely has Fox (~83-93) Mustang suspension, so no adaptors needed.

On the cobra the wheels like like shiat if you ask me. These wheels have no depth to them. that's what makes a wheel cool to me, not some ricer type big wheel with skinny tires
