I think I've decided what to do with regard to wheels

I will! I'm in 42F Lake Arrowhead until tomorrow morning. That's still in SoCal, and it's already late in May. Brrr.
Back home tomorrow, and the wheels get mounted.

The finished product: I'd say the color is just a touch darker than stock, and then you have the appearance of "depth" in the color. Like the Midnight Blue paint, it seems like they'll look a little diffent in various lighting situations. I'll try and take a pic in the late afternoon-it was pretty much high noon when I shot these.

Thanks JP, I'm really liking them! I'm sitting in the garage watching the Monaco race on the DVR, and am spending more time ogling the wheels. I think the thing I like most is the shadows they provide. The side of a given spoke that picks up light kind of glows, and the opposite side of the spoke takes on a muted deeper gray hue. A way to breathe new life into the ol' Cups.

Thanks Nick-we're about due to set up a San Diego meet or drive. Maybe a trip up to Irvine one of these Saturdays-nice early sunrises make that easier.

Interesting. Looks pretty good to my eye but would need to see them in person. One thing I notice is that most hypersilver rims seem to be a bit shiny. 'Ed's new cups" (will call them C size for clarity sake ) seem fairly matte. Is that correct?
