Looking at buying me a set of ASA R1 17inch wheels. Not sure whether to go with Black, Silver or Gunmetal. So in other words, please post pics of your red FD with any aftermarket wheel so that I can compare colors. Thanks -Brad

PS- if tirerack would let you choose a red FD instead of just a black one I wouldn't have this problem. But no dis to tirerack...I love those guys

Rotary Run Racing, they are out of business and obviously no longer in production. Very few sets in the u.s.
