Are they the white right now? The rims in the last picture? If so, I would definitely go black.

I always see cars reflecting the persons personality.

Someone thats is more shy or calm may want a nice subtle looking car that doesnt draw much attention, on the other hand someone who is wild/crazy and likes to stand out may choose a off color like lime green or yellow. Just a thought.

I like the red though for some reason

black/whte/red those look good but for your car I'd use a high gloss black to match your hood.Personally I'd like that option. I've been a fan of white cars on red wheels they look good. Also I like white when you have some nice rotors and colored calipers. The white/red combo is great. Black would look the best over time cause brake dust on white is ugly unless you're maticulous about your wheels as I am and rub them down when they accumulated the slightest dirt. But in the end its up to your tastes.

I forgot to mention.... are you keeping the silver lip? cause you can do a wheel/lip combo, black wheels with color match blue lip? or maybe black wheels red lip? Or do you feel that you wanted the silver to contrast the painted portions to make it stand out a bit more.
