Not a fan of tinted tails nor red caliper paint...Is the paint gloss or satin? Looks good.

It looks awesome!!! I was talking about painting my rims with a buddy and once the rocks are off the road, I'm going to paint the whole vehicle also.

Not a fan of black wheels on a black vehicle, besides it's played out. Nothing beats a black vehicle with chrome or hypersilver/bright finish wheels, remember contrast is a good thing.
