OK, I haven't done one DE or AutoX and I know me,
I will hooked after the first time (heck I'm already hooed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ) You thoughts, the 74 LE parts car came with red/orange painted mahle rims. My car is signal orange and I want to use these rims for autoX tires I don't want to mess up my Fuchs so...... I know who cares what color the rims are if you are racing, well I guess I do. Was thinking of painting them black, what do ya think? here is a pic of the rims and my ride. Mahles Attached thumbnail(s)
