Thanks for the pics. They looked good on car!

As for why I am thinking of replacing my chrome ones - just wanting something with a little less "bling".

What kind of chrome wheels? Maybe we can work out a trade.
My 2x spokes are mint - 6,000 miles.

Thanks for the pics! If I swap out wheels I will hang onto my current ones, but thanks for trade interest.
