Red or Black?

Been thinking about going with red BBS center caps. I did a quick photoshop with them on there and I kind of like them.

What do you guys think? Red? or Black?

Also thinking about getting the red BBS lug nuts as well. Thoughts?

I always appreciate all the input you guys give. Thanks!

Both look good, The red just brings more attention to the wheels as the black brings more attention to the car. IMO

Personally I have a strong preference for black, especially with a silver car. To me on silver the red pops so much that it clashes a bit. I think the black compliments the silver very well, even more so if you have black kidney grills, which I think you do.
