I found these, but you’ll need to double-check them to confirm 245F, GPH, WA245F.

Red wheels on a red car - don’t think that’s going to look that great

That was a sweet look for about 5 minutes, 30 years ago.

don't look too bad to me but hey your money do it how you want.. Mine won't be solid color though but will have accent pieces to match it.

Cool - aftermarket wheels or not, didn’t look good in the ‘80s & won’t look good now. That blue car you posted looks awful

You entitled to your opinion.. Your money fix it how you want to.. I agree to disagree pretty sure we will never agree at your age bc my grandpa don't like wheels either.. I'm 24 my vette is already paid for so I will fix that bad boy how I want to ...

Get whatever you want! I put OEM paint to match anthracite wheels on an anthracite c2s and EVERYONE liked the combo- constantly got positive comments. Its your car only to impress you and give you pride. Red mist on the body says your not mainstream and eager to go out on a limb having ordered and never seen the color yourself. Good for you- those wheels may do it -

Im thinking my ordered machined wheels will need some modification as was noted in here last week to get rid of the whitewall look- I have the black/red stripe wheels on the c7 maybe I should mist the machined rim area instead of the carbon flash spray- your making me re think this
