Wow I saw the first pic and was like nice.... flat black looks hot.
Then I saw the red stripes and my head imploded on itself.

Not a fan!

flat black looks sick but the red lines i don't really think look very good maybe a red lip would be better.

Normally I would say leave them black, but the red is interesting. Different. Would really like to see them on the car. My next set of track wheels are going to be some shade of red. Just for something different.

All black looks good. Leave the red off. Don't do the red stripe either...

I'll be the first :
Time attack themes are getting brutally played out.
Ok I said it!

i think completely red spoke and a black lip would be cool.

I agree. The black looked fine, but the red completely ruined it.

Black. Just black.
Unless you plan on adding red stripes all over your car like some sort of whacked out Zebra. But you have to rattle can the entire car, then post pictures in this thread.

Black. Just black.
