They are A.R.E. wheels- special made for Saleen in 1988 1/2 - 1991. They do look almost identical to Ronal R9. And yes, real OEM Saleen A.R.E. wheels are hard to find. Width is 7.5 front and 8.0 rear. Those are eBay gold if they are real and in good shape.
And if they were 85 Saleen wheels, they'd be 4 lug and Hayashi mesh wheels.

we'll see I might just take $500 and ride on ponys for a bit.

500 bucks for a set is super cheap if they are the AREs, get yourself an ebay account.

Cool pics.
Ever seen this site? Lots of rare Foxs' on here:
http://www.performanceautosport.com/cars.asp

My Saleen Days are over, but I had 90-#0177,
90-#011, and 89-#0420. I bought 90-#0177 brand new in 1991 when I was in the Army right off the showroom twirler. Love those cars.

OP- sorry for thread jack- TTT

We still have not seen the actual pictures of these wheels though..

They not Ronal R9's the rears aren't 16x9, its 16x7's with 205/55/16s on em with about 90% tread.


American Racing 5-spoke

The 5-spoke was phased-in in 1989, and used thru 1991. Ronal made a similar wheel, but it was not used by Saleen. The fronts are 16x7 with 4-3/8" backspace (10mm offset), while the rears have 5-3/4" backspacing (32mm offset). There were a variety of colors used - white, gray, gold, etc. The 5-spoke was also available in standard Mustang fitments, which had a more deep-dish appearance.
