i dont think you should unless you throw some more red somewhere else. you have all blacked out lights and what not so in my opinion it would look out of place.

Personally, I like the stripe. Brings nice attention to the wheels.

If you took the tints off the tailights it could work a little better..I have an 02 qs z06 with mod red interior..and im probably going to go with all black c6 z06 wheels with a red pinstripe i think it will tie in with the brakes, tailights, emblem and interior very well. I do like the red pinstripe though..Car looks awesome anyways

Nope. I like the bsm as well, I say leave them alone. I would also suggest taking the sticker off the back window, but that's just me.

I think the red stripe looks good...adds some "pop" to the wheels.

I think the most bang for the buck would involve removing the sticker from the back window.. and lowering it a bit on the factory bolts..

I like the clean, simple look including the BSM removal.

Did you spray bomb the wheels? What color it looks good. Almost competition grey?

I would not do the red stripe. Also i would remove the BSM!
