Default Black rims on Matador Red

Hello all just wondered what the opinions are on this ? I think it would look quite cool, can anybody photoshop ?

More importantly can anyone suggest some suitable rims that I could maybe ship over here (UK) ?

Was thinking about getting some on my RX400h, generally SUVs in the UK tend to be funeral style colours so getting Matador Red is quite a big departure from the norm & I think the black rims would really set it off but I'm not so familiar with customization so would appreciate any and all advice


Cheers

It all really depends you. But, if you have already found the rim you want you can always go to the Photoshop thread and have some one chop it on the Matador 400h for you. IMO, I'd go with subtle not too flashy rims. For example, WALD has some good wheels for the RX. Oh, and if you do get black rims don't get black chrome, have it powdered coated black. But that's just my taste. Anything that floats your boat.

I would get powder coated too.. do you have any links of any suggestions ?

Or how about if you pick out a set of rims and ask if someone would be kind enough to photoshop ? I would just like a general idea as to how it would look so would be more than happy to go along with your particular opinion on the rims

Many thanks

As I was saying the WALD wheels are executive VIP wheels, so it's not your average honda civic wheels. But here is the site:

Good luck on your rim purchase. I have already decided on mine.
