The guys who are liking red striped rims would have been very happy in 1966

Mid 60's the tire manufactures made redline, blueline & even goldline pinstriped tires.

Many GTO's, Shelby's and other High Performance cars could be ordered from the factory with them...

Looks okay, but I personally like the chrome lip better. Nice car though!

I had the Black center and polished lip 3 years ago when hardly anybody
had them.
Maybe this will catch on, too.

Literally one of the best W203s I've seen. I'd have run a slightly smaller red stripe, but it looks good, probably much moreso in person.

LET C32 2002
I am liking the Brabus rims rather real or reps more and more nowadays....I do like the look but I think the purpose of a lip is to stand out well now its all universal but definitely different and good looking.

Thanks, my painter said if I need to thin out the Red edge he could do it easily or even in a darker Red. I'm still getting opinions.
I've already got a few thumbs up on the road yesterday.

BTW, one of the members Advan has pics on his sig showing a 230 coupe
and a BMW 5 series with black rims and red edge trims. Those pics made
me make up my decision to do the same.
