I would leave the Tein decal alone first at least, then change it if you don't like how it looks. I like your rims clean look not too cluttered.

red would be ok, so would black, all depends on if you want a color spot seen behind those black rims. if you like that dark look then paint them black.

Gold or Bronze. It would really make the wheels pop.

Red is played out.

With the polished lip I would stick with red. Red may be the most popular color but you still don't see many cars with painted calipers period, let alone red.
