My daily rider is this Haro Sport which I'm about to order some Odyssey tan walls for, I've been thinking about changing the wheels back to the original silver Alex wheels for a more retro look or going for a set of bling Alex Supra E's which are available on egay for only £45.

I'm not sure about the size of the rims, verdict please.....

Keep the black wheels with the skinwall tyres.

Sweet.

Robbo as Dave says, tan walls and black rims will look the nuts I think

it would seem so

Chrome everyday of the week and twice on Sunday for me guys, never liked black rims!

If you can't get the Oddy tyres why not go for some Primo V Mosters same as mine, very similar tyres to be fair.

or Lamellos??

I've got the 2.1 Odysseys on the way, I did fancy the 1.85's to give it the retro look but I'm sure the 2.1s will look ok.

Can see me ordering the chrome wheels after the weekend.....
