Darin,I wish the elves had some active-suspension magic fairy dust I could send your way which would allow the Metro to drop half the wheel diameter when cruising on the highway.There seems to be a lot of ground clearance which could be lost.I'm certain it would show at the pump.Yep,the ideas come easy,it's the implementation that slows everything to a standstill.------- Looks great! Looks OEM! Many probably won't even notice.It's seamless!
