Personal opinion, i wouldnt get the red. For me personally i think they look horrible once on the car. They may look flash off, but man rims look different when they're on. And also, red rim accents are such a "current phase" thing in my opinion. I know to a certain extent all rims end up looking outdated, but something like this will age quickly and you'll end up being that douchebag that still drives around with chromies. But your not buying them for me so do what you think looks good :D

Red lip doesn't look bad on most colored cars... I had a red lip on my Weds Sport SA-70 (C-ONE edition) on a teal blue car.

Are the red sections not inserts that can be removed?
I've seem some rims where there was inserts that could be swapped with different colours to match you car....cant think of where at moment, Gianna & Hipnotiks they were called.
