Yes. Some of you probably know that my color scheme for my car (when I get it) will be black and red. I'm looking for red colored/chrome rims/wheels. Does anyone know anything about these? Does any company make red ones or do I have to get them custom dipped?

Is the car red? I think if you got red wheels on a red body that would seriously look tacky.

No. The car will be black. The accents will be red.

Red rims or red trim would look sweet. Either one is good. Do you think it's possible to buy silver rims because they are cheeper than chrome and just get them dipped in red chrome?

This is not important enough to get bumped.
Sure people like the opinions of others when making decisions, but if you can't decide without everyone's decision then it's not your idea and you shouldn't do it to your car cause you might not like the results later on.

I really, really like those rims and that car. The rims look like Volk Racing GT-C rims(which are very expensive unfortunately), but I'm not sure.

By the way, do you have a photo of red chrome wheels? I don't think I've ever seen them before. And I think it's probably worth it just to buy the rims you want in the first place, rather than buying a silver version and getting them chromed(is that a word? biggrin.gif). They'll probably look more professional, but it all depends on how good the shop is that paints them for you.

Those rims look sweet. Yeah, I thought I had seen some red rims in a catalog once. But those trimmed wheels look excellent as well. Does anyone know where they can be bought at? Also, thanks tons for the pic, Coomer. Highly appreciated!

AB Flug makes dual tri-spokes with one of the sets being either Champagne, Red, Blue, or Black

I think they're like $600 per wheel though
last i saw them, they were on TakaKaira.com

Now that you say that, I remember seeing some Advan red rims on a Silvia I believe. Here are some red rims:
