I vote black......looks stealth, and doesn't take people's attention away from your rims

Red looks WAY ricey if they arent BREMBO. I did black on mine... Why show off or make notice ur stock calipers?!?! WHat for? Black just makes it look cleaner than rust/dirt/dust... My 2 cents.

Foolish? pffft wateva

Red looks sweet imo, nice as to look at, and shows uip the details uve gone to. Silver/Black blends too much...so unless your going offroading or using them heavily, where theyll et covered in dust...go red! I did mine in Engine Orange, and it looks SWEET!

not really trying to draw neccassarily more attention.. but now that i have new wheels.. they really contrast from the "shiny/polished" brake disks and wheels...

they're dusty and such...

He has stock brakes and the silver really turned out nicely...
