Default Looking for some input
I'm trying to decide if i should paint my GTO wheels black. maybe leave a silver lip, or all black with a red pinstripe on the lip? Give me some input please-

Not a fan of black wheels, but if you do the silver lip would be better, red doesn't go well with MMM. Very nice car by the way, MMM is the best fbody color (aside from black lol).
