I'm wondering if Ronal are the company that got BBS out of its financial troubles. Anyone remember that we heard BBS was to be no more?

I notice there's some pratt called RedRobin who posts a lot on that Tyresmoke linked site :rolleyes:

Ronal have no involvement with BBS.

BBS were taken over early last year.

When I had to replace the N/S front on my old GTI (yes I kerbed it  :embarassed:) the wheel that was supplied to me was as described in the Tyresmoke thread.

In fact it took Markymark a few months to notice!  :wink:
