Black or Silver?

im getting the HRE C21's in brushed silver with polished lips and was thinking of paiting the center black to match my new red turbo so what do you guys think ? paint the canter black or just leave it brushed silver?

black and red is always killer together I would go with the black ones..

I think a graphite colored center would look amazing as well.

When you say brushed silver, I think you mean brushed aluminum, which means the wheels are currently not painted at all (probably clear coated though). I think a cool unique idea for a guards red TT would be to paint the whole wheel silver, the spokes and especially the lip. A guy from Italy painted his stock wheels silver and they look really good. Window tint would really finish it off nicely.
