I got a second set of wheels with my 74. Seller said they were magnesium Rivieras. The gold color is interesting. Anyone know anything about them? Here is a front shot:

Those are early rivieras. Somewhat more valuable than regular rivieras to the bug crowd. Definitely not magnesium. Sell them on thesamba and buy yourself some real wheels (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)
