    I already replied to this in another. I am going to clean up the lips and mount them. Roll on them as is till I actually decide what I really want to do.

    I will enjoy refinishing them when I do. No need to really dread doing it. Just a little elbow grease.

    Something like the ACS CLS II with body matched centers may be nice...

    How are you going to refinish them? Painted centers?
    No sir...

    These are Type I race My centers do not extend out to the bolt holes on the face of the wheel. Little different design.

    Dunno yet. Clean lips right now and mount

    Well crap. I hate being wrong, I need new references lol! I thought the ACS Type I's were the 1-piece and the Type II's were 2 or 3-piece with the bolts.

    I see what you mean now...


    Did Ronal make the type I's and OZ make the II's...or are they all made by Ronal?

    *edit*
    NM, there's so many different types of each type of wheel made by both Ronal and OZ. There are even Type II race versions made by both OZ and Ronal lol!

    O.Z. Racing SPA Made the Type I Race Wheels. I can snap some photos when I get home in more details. Here is the run down with some photos for you. This is compiled by one of the ACS 'experts' on bf.c and supplemented with photos that I dug up.

    ACS Type I - 1 Piece - Ronal(This is not confirmed)


    ACS Type I "Race" - 3pc - O.Z. Racing SPA(confirmed)


    ACS Type II - 1pc - Ronal(confirmed by not 100%)
    Photo does not show it but these are pretty concave wheel and a favorite for a lot of people


    ACS Type II "Race" - 3pc - Ronal(confirmed)


    ACS Type III - 1pc - Ronal(this is not confirmed) THIS IS A HEAVY WHEEL
    This wheel also has so many reps it is almost comical


    ACS Type III Race - 2pc - Ronal(this is not confirmed) - Never actually seen these wheels with my own eyes.


    ACS Type IV - 1pc - No idea manufacturer


    ACS Type IV Race - Again no idea manufacturer


    ACS Type V - Newest Wheel - Forged - Hideous!!!



    There you are
