Terribull! Just Terribull!

I haven't come across any. Those scream RICE! Or WRC. However, i don't think you car is of WRC quality.

I told here to go with gold or bronze but she wants some green wheels but she doesn't want to buy them and not like them. I have looked around where we live with no luck on finding any green wheels os hopefully I can get her to go with something else.

Seems like more of a VW appropriate thing.

I don't think I'd put it that way. Thinking about it, it seems to me that a drastic contrast like that works better with the more angular body shape of those late model boxy VW's I usually see with green wheels. Of course, that's just my perception, and there's no accounting for taste. Others may not think what I've done with my car looks good. :shrug:
