They are the ones I've been waiting for my entire life...

I only know them as Ronal 5-spokes, but those are the wheels I swooned over back in school that I thought looked perfect on an SA or FB. The fact that they're 4x114.3 is even more of a tease, to be honest. Tell me you only have two of them so I can stop obsessing...

Nice find,
