Default pics of red with black rims

I honestly tried several different searches to no avail. I am looking for pics of red cars with black rims. I have a mag red II car so i would like to see that. I know most people shy away from black on this car and like chrome, but i am not a chrome person. I am looking at some black c6 Z06 rims to go on it (17/18" staggered), then maybe some blackouts and dark tint.

Thanks guys!

Not a fan of this new fad of painting rims black or to match the paint of the car. The rims end up looking like they're 13 inches. I mean no disrespect, but

no different then the chrome rim trend and I like the painted lip just to add a little seperation between rim and tire.

I like the lip on those cray, but I think for the money I am getting some normal zo6 style black rims from the auction site. My best friend just got some c5 black ones for his c4. They look really nice.

I would really like to see black wheels on Mag Red myself, I might do this one day also. Black accents and Mag Red go hand in hand!
