I recall back in the sixties when chrome reverse wheels were all the rage, few people, very few people, would run them with whitewall tires for fear of being laughed at - they just didn't look very good with whitewalls - no contrast....
Look again.... "the TWO cars" is only ONE car. That is a mirrored wall on the left side of that showroom. And if you'll remember, Kube's new "SWEETIE" is equipped with Spiders, just like in the pic I posted. DD
