I admire your two tone. It's subtle and that makes it awesome! My preference is for original dome wheels. They appeal to me more than any other wheel type because they are distinctive. An unusual wheel design in an age of alloys and plastic hubs.

Very nice ride, also like your colour scheme but prefer it without the white walls as shown in your first batch of photos 8)
