Default Red and Black or Red and Chrome?

http://www.wheelsnext.com/images/whe...S5_BWC_2_W.jpg You guys think these would look good with A black stripe kit for a red WS-6?
http://www.wheelsnext.com/images/whe...H_REDCAP_2.jpg Would these look good with a stock red Ws6?
Of course they would be in 18's not 20's

I like the red and black too but I feel like they don't have any "shine" to them, at least not like the chrome ones do. I wish i could photoshop
