I really like those! You know why? I'll tell you. Because they can distinctly be seen in a very subtle cool way. With black wheels one cannot really see them very well. Those are just right. No bling, but enough to see them and make your ride look aggressive. You really made a good choice.

Well done.

I understand struggling a bit with the color choice. I find it difficult to truly know how a color choice will look until it is done - and then it can be too late.

I had a red C4 with bronze wheels. I guess the color combo is coming back. It was a '93.
