ROH wheels out of Canada built an limited run for GM for the 1994-97 Impala SS line, then GM outsourced them for mass production and left ROH holding the bag....crummy deal for ROH. Funny tho, many years back a company called OE Wheel Distributors sold what appeared to be a knock-off version of the GM wheel except the center cap came with a black stick on insert instead of an Impala logo. Well, at the time I was building a 79 Monte Carlo with a 5 on 5 pattern and I ordered the wheels anyway....17x9 and cost was $630 total shipped to my door! The GM ones NOS at the time (circa 2002-3) were about $600 ea!

Guess what? These were ROH wheels but without any GM markings! I later found out ROH wheels retained the rights to the wheel design and still sold them for quite awhile. They have long since been discontinued.....too bad....I liked their Snyper wheels but they too have went away.....sucks!
