Default Rim identification?

Anybody know what year these 17" firehawk rims might be off of and how rare they are? They're on the 95 I'm picking up and I'm not really sure if I like them. Think I may be selling them.

Thanks, that will help me out alot. Any idea on what just the rims might be worth? They're in good condition with with a few scratches and clearcoat issues. I'd consider them daily driver quality.

Actually, those are NOT Ronal R-15s. I had a set of those on my '92 Formula, and they were freaking beautiful wheels. They are what came on the '92 Hawks.

The one on that green car are made by ROH, and were available on the early LT1 Hawks. I can't say which years. I am pretty sure that is stamped on the back of the wheels somewhere, but I am not positive on that.

As far as they rarity, I didn't see any other cars on here with them when I was more active on this site. And, the set on that green car is the ONLY set I ever saw with the charcoal centers.
