Red would look great... but it would stand out a lot, it would be the only red on the car... it's why I'm not wild about my fill stems being blue... it's the only blue on the car.

I actually really like how the chrome Mutekis look on there. It's a nice contrast. They guy sent me black lugs but they have one chrome locking nut that just looks stupid.

Here are some more pics...

I think the offset is perfect for that flush look

Oh yeah, and NO RUBBING!!! 18x9 +29 with 245/40/18

I have blue lugs on mine and it looks good but not great. I am going to swap them out with red topped spline lugs as soon as I can find my lug key
