Ronal is one of the oldest OEM rim manufactures around. They make rims for lots of car companies including BMW, VW, Mercedes, etc. You won't find them on their website, but you should be able to contact them via their site and they will direct you to how to get some I'm hoping to get some RT's soon.

Yes, these are the Brabus monoblock rims that are available on the Brabus version in Europe. Also, if you notice, they look a lot like one of the rims you can get on Mercedes.

Does anyone know why Brabus doesn't market in the US for smart? Yea, Yea; I know there aren't many of us in the US yet but they are all over Canada, is there an importer there? Just can't understand why someone hasn't gotten onboard with these aftermarket Goods, they're awsome!!

Canadian importer is: http://www.flyingtiger.ca/

Maybe Smartune could become a Brabus vendor?

That's a very good question, Dunerunner.

I've got a Passion on the way... and the 9 spokes have really grown on me. I still kind of want to get a set of the 6 spoke Pulse wheels. Even then, I find something really attractive about the Pure wheels - both steel with the center cap, and with the full face wheelcover. They look great in real life.
