Ricer Wheels?

Me personally...NO....I think it would have a better shot if the spokes were red and the lip black but the red lip just looks horrible IMO

I think they look good, I also think the zo6's with the thinner red line look good also. Especially on a black car, that red and black combo is nice. Where does one go about getting the rims painted?

Im really tempted to do this myself. I am not sure if I like the big lip with the red or the thin lip.

I think you could get away with it, but some people are going hate on it. It sort of reminds me of what everyone seems to be doing with their Gallardos and Murcielagos.
