Re: black rims, red calipers?!
Maybe not so hot on the wrong color car ( red, green) but I get tons of compliments on mine . And they are powder coated. Paint doesn't last.
Thanks AFBeefcakes for a great car! |

Re: black rims, red calipers?!
It looks good. Your wheels are on the wrong sides. As far as black rims with red calipers I think it could work. Especially if there's like a red stripe around the edge of the wheels. Like these:

Re: black rims, red calipers?!
Each to their own guys. IMO SVX calipers aren't that good looking so why make them stand out? I wouldn't wear a yellow suit as everyone would stare and see what a fat/old/ugly/ twat I am. (Can I say twat?)
Now if the calipers were machined from billet and anodised black with those red lined black wheels then happy days. Maybe s/steel taper head allen screws with lockwire could provide some 'bling'. |

Re: black rims, red calipers?!
since everyone is telling me about that, i'm just gonna copy my answer
"""I know...apparently the stupid Costco tire guy didn't know how to read the L and the R on the tires(done by prev owner and i'm too lazy to get it fixed...it also could peel some of the new paint off)"""
