Default How would these look on my Riviera Red Lexus?

I'm tired of cleaning my stock wheels and I want her to look different.

How would some red wheels look on my car?

If the colors,in the images are true to life, I think they would look terrible, a red car with pink wheels.

You are absolutely right. I just now looked into it and found out they are truck wheels.

I guess I'm looking for something similar and if anyone can steer me in the right direction, it would be appreciated.

I think it's just a problem with the photo. If they have a red shade out there that matches mine, it might look decent.

I like some black in them, but it'll definately have some red, too. Somewhere anyway. That's a given for me. Guess I'm a red freak.

you have a HOT luxury 2013 GS350, with the new Riviera Red color and you're willing to put red rims on that car. hey,,, whatever floats your boat but you'll be doing a grave injustice to that car. it's your car,, your choice. how about some gunmetal, or machine polished wheels. have the photoshop forum do it for you. better yet have them photoshop the wheels you like and tell us what you think after you see it for yourself.

go to the photoshop sub forum and post a pic of ur car and any wheels your thinking of and they can shop a great pic that will give you a real good idea of how it will look. there is one guy who does most of the photoshops and he does a really amazing job.
def ur best bet.

Thanks to both of you, for the direction. I would love to see how they would look before actually dropping the dime. Great idea. I appreciate the help.

I didn't know there was a section of the forum that had people that would do that.

My vote would be for machine-polished wheels. Nice and shiny without being chrome and they will set off the color of your car.
