You bastard. Damn you for opening up the possibility that blue/gold goes together wheel. Just like WRX's I guess.

Neither of us realized that till we rolled his wheels up next to my car for shits and giggles, and were amazed.

I see that you've found it to be true as well!

Funny, my wedding colors were blue and gold and they really go together. My car looks great with the blue/gold combo, I think.

The US Navy's colors are blue and gold... That wouldn't have been the case for 200+ years if they didn't go together.

Raze R-74 rims in 17x7 42mm and 17x8 48mm.

Going to put some 12mm spacers on the rears. They tuck in too far for good looks.

Yeah TE37s are pretty cool. Different spoke shape though. I'd love to have some Volks/Rays but they're so expensive and California roads would destroy them :-(

I've got a dozen 14" tech wheels with old 195s on them in my backyard ;-)

Blue Shift and I were thinking about having a burnout session with them one day. I would have to swap back to small brakes on the rear though.
