I understand trying to accent in red, but so far I havent seen many rims that pull it off. But what the hell, they're just the stocks. Try it out! Maybe you'll change my mind. You will eventually get other rims anyway...

I can see it on my phone. It might work if the red is a darker red. Try it with plastidip. If you like it, keep it. If you don't, then just peel it off.

You would also have to do the side vent 86 badge.

It looks so much better if the wheels are black, and then put the red ring on them. That being said I personally would find better things to do with +/- $20 it takes to do the job.
