MSFIT, I assume you are showing off your tires right? Thought you have those RGII for some time already. Anyway, the whole combo looks good.

OK, I don't have the energy to go back through all 2,000+ posts here so does anyone have a photo of a CR/W with anthricite or grey wheels? I know those colors look good on CR/B but I'm not quite sure about CR/W.
Thanks!
