Any pics of red wheels on black cars? Ordering a black c8, not crazy about any of the wheel choices. Anyone have any pics of any cars with this set-up? Thanks.

To each his/her own. What difference does it make if they are red on a red car or black on a black car... other than personal preference? Paint 'em pink with green and purple polka-dots and then show us!

Those are very expensive HRE wheels. I would powder coat them if you don't like the color.
