Kev, I'm normally very complimentary of everyone's mods but I'm not feeling the red ring. It reminds me of the old tires in the 60s & 70s on muscle cars. Perhaps you're bringing back a "look" from the past. + rep for your courage.

rims look great, but the red ring does seem kinda out of place, maybe if you paint your calipers red, it might add a little more contrast, but i like what youve got going so far

yea i love those wheels but have to kinda agree with mayo and tokoyama. They look sweet no doubt. especially from the back cause you have the red part in the tails to complement the red ring on the wheels but from the front it just seems kinda outta place. Its still different and still looks tight. +rep mang
Don't get me wrong Kev, I love the wheels and they go great with your set-up. It's just going to take me a while to get used to the red ring. Of course when it comes to modding, we all try to be unique and "push the envelope" so to speak. Rock on!
