I'd like to keep the look of the Hakone intact, which means bronze wheels. I looked at possibly expanding my choices to include gold, but decided against it. You might think there isn't much difference, but every image I've seen of a green car with gold (yellow) wheels reminds me of a John Deere. And the Packers. Sorry, I'm a Bears fan.
Another possible direction would be to get some Torq Thrusts and go for a mini-Bullitt look.
What say ye?



RPF1's come in bronze. https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=86060
