Default I got new rims on my Z, would like to know what you think?

I just bought these KMC rims and put them on a few days ago. There is a red lip around the out side edge of the rim. I wanted the rims in black but it came with that red strip around them. I didnt mind it at all until one of my friends said that it didnt look right on my car since its not black. Im not sure if i should have them painted to black, the color of my car or just leave them red. I welcome any input that anyone may have. Thanks

Took me a bit to realize your car was blue and not black.

Get rid of them

I didn't even notice till you posted.

Those rims look too small for the car. To each his own I guess.

i've posted over 3K posts here and I've never given anyone negative feedback.... until now.

i have to agree with everyone else, put the stockers back on and save up for some decent wheels. You've taken a BIG step in the wrong direction with those wheels.
