Your car is clean and distinctive. I would stick with the current setup or find a nicer wheel to compliment your car. I just don't think the red lip does anything for your car and really doesnt compliment anything. See if someone can photochop it for you and you can decide better. I actually like the Axis Milano's your currently have. Maybe think about having the lip on those painted black. Just my .02cents.

hey Sean, I actually like the distinctiveness behind the idea. I think it's woth a shot. I guess it really depends on what direction you want to head with the car. This would definetly throw it into a different category. Btw, if you get a list going of people wanting the Milano's let me know when your done with it, I'll be switching up my setup soon as well

Thanks for the comments guys. I am into sport and I am looking for wheels that will flow with the TRD theme. As you guys know, the TRD colors are red, white & black.
Are you guys familiar with Time Attack? I am in love with the Time Attack theme on cars like Mercedes, BMW, Audi, and others.. I have yet to see it on our cars
This is the style I seek for this GS below.. Derrick, I will contact you about the wheels

Hmm,, was having a little trouble trying toimagine the look. Think if you do it exactly like the pic above, where just the outer rim of the lip is painted VIP red and not the ENTIRE inner lip like the wheel on the first page is then it could possibly work. The vette above looks amazing with that setup, but it is a sinister looking car with a sinister looking wheel. Add tint to the car and it may be a go. See if you can get a photochop done with the wheel and tint.
BTW,, Greed I got first dibs on the Milano's bud!!!
at first sight, if my car was black, I would have gone that route.

No prob, here's a little something for you for today! lol
20" Daytona Matte Black with Ruby Red lip. The cool thing about the iFORGED colored lip is its can be ordered in transluscent finish so its more like a candy color. This is because the chrome lip gives it a mirror shine UNDER the color. As opposed to just a flat painted lip. I personally prefer the slightly darker candy red over a flat bright red for a black sports/luxury sedan like GS.
In this pic notice how you can see the reflection of the rivets in the lip UNDER the color, and its a mirror reflection!
