hi.. no, this are no oringinal wheeler tyres... mudd dawg tyres...
yes, a little more black would be fine, but don´t know any components which are mostly black at the rear mechanic... also the LX is not black at all... have one at my trek..
oh thanks for that picture... yes that´s what I meant, the cage is chrome, so it would not make sense to change.. the hubs would look great but hard to get in a very good shape I think..
