Here's the deal, I have a dark gray G35, and saw some wheels that were black with a Red lip. I was wondering if anyone has a wheel like this on their car so i can see what they look like, or if you just wanted to give an opinion...I know its kind of a dumb thread, but i'm curious. lol Thanks!

Actually I've just seen one with red inserts today. I am shopping tires for my G. What can I say I am a spirited driver.

Back to the thread. I try to go back on the history to see I can pull those wheels.

Ok,

I am officially dumb. So my wife asked me what I was searching I told her about the wheel I've seen. So I told her that was a wheel with the red insert. She says what we seen on the weekend at the tire shop.

I swear to god I thought I've seen it on the net. Aparently not.

Anyways I thought it would look good on the red coupe but I don't know about other colors.

I think tirerack has a program where you can put wheels on your model car to see how they look...

That's not weird at all - I think the market is saturated with the chrome bling and more alloy colors and painted lips/rims are being done.

There is a new Harley F150 in the streets of Baltimore that has black 24" rims - but the whole lip piece is painted orange - this truck is soooo hot. I also saw a black beemer with black rims and only the edge of the lip was painted red. I think you will see more and more of this. I'm not sure I would do black and red on a grey car but that is just me. If your car is grey then go with a Hyper Black (Grey) color rim.



Tirerack won't have anything like this on their site. I will see if I can find a picture.

The Yamahas used to come with DK if they still do but they had black wheels with a red lip on the black Yamahas. They looked very very very nice imho but idk how it would look on the dark grey. ive only seen it done on a black vehicle. Ive seen it on a Black RX7 also...

You can always find a reliable shop that paints wheels and then get any type that you want!!! Where are you located?

don't know if you're still looking or not, if you are check out the axis website. they've got the axis halo and axis super hiro that you can customize the colors to.
