Hey! I have those rims...they are protecting my chromies over the winter
Actually, I will confess, I like them way better on the red car then I do on my black one. Does anyone else though think it'* strange to have gold rims and chrome/silver trim? or is that just a girly thing to be bugged by?

also...Jeanie...I think that gold/chrome issue is a girl thing....comes from years of having it drilled into your head that it'* a faux pas to "clash metals"....but maybe it'* ok with cars because there'* so much metal involved?

maybe...i also notice that the rim around the gold is actually silver, therefore, they work. who made that silly gold and chrome clash rule anyways?
