I see you got the wheels you really wanted...( red lip ).....Looks good!!!

As for the lugs, I'd keep them chrome or black and stay away from the red ones....They may pull your eyes away from the lip of the wheel...

Talking about the Indian Chief.....Here's my one offs!!! :mrgreen:

I will do the centerpiece in a black background with the Indian Chief emblem in solid red or just a red outline. Just thought maybe change the chrome centerpiece cap to black as well would be a nice touch.

I have red lugs on my black wheel setup...they all end up chipping away paint badly.

got a good look going and I like those center caps

I agree.

You should consider painting the rotor hats black to have them blend in to the remaining open holes of the bolt pattern.
