I say go for it. . . . .if you do decide to do it you need to keep your car really clean though or it will just look stupid.

I'm a big fan of RED but I'm not sold on those. I think they look great on both the blue Z06 and the Lambo, but I'm just not feeling the VIPER for some reason.

they would look good, but the car would have to be slammed and the wheels would have to be 18s or bigger to pull off the look.

It might look good, but I don't know about those particular wheels. I hate universal bolt pattern wheels, they look cheap and "ricer" to me.

I'm not so sure about the wheel itself, but the black with red lip looks killer on a red car. Do something different! I would color match a lip to the color of any car except black or white.

I think it would look good a Red car with a berger panel, black top, and a black manta or sunoco with the sides painted black or a all black car with red accents

It's going to be either one of those things that everybody like and looks great or everybody hates and looks like ****. But we wont ever know till somebody actually does it or does a real good photoshop.

I was just about to post pics of that Vette ^^

I am not sure a Camaro could pull it off, but I definitely wouldn't count it out. Get the stance right and those could possibly look pretty good.
