Blue Mavic Cosmic wheels with black and orange striped tires. blue stripes would work slightly less well...

...thats my answer and I am sticking with it! Stella needs blue....!!!!

Given that I'm pretty sure I'll be able to fix whatever was wrong with the old wheels, should I put the original polished silver wheels back on or stick with black rims. As a lifelong Orioles fan, I've got a soft spot for orange and black, but I'm not entirely convinced. I've got a couple of pictures in the same spot for comparison, but unfortunately there are other variables at play, such as different lighting and skin wall tires vs. solid. I can't do anything about the lighting, but I will offer the tire options as a second variable for the poll.

Silver?


Or black?
