not many other minis that I know of with whitewalls. I believe I was either one of, or the first to run whitewalls. this is for winter only. Sorry, no chrime mirror caps

this is just after getting them installed (october 2004) with my wife driving

All that needs is some Moon Caps. (You have to be old to know what those are).
