Looks like a chick with a glob of lipstick around her mouth, opening real wide and she's about to stuff a big..........Eggplant Parm in her mouth. Wait, where did you think this was going? (Sorry, couldn't resist...I'm currently reading, I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell).

I have the miro m6 reps time attack and the one reason I DO like the red on my rims is because the red pinstripe is small. On your wheels, your red pinstripe is very thick. I think if you can find vinyl that is half the width of the one you currently have, then it will look hot. When you look from far away, the red stands out a lot and I agree with Calton about the red lipstick part lol.
When you look close up, it looks like too much. I think you should leave the inner barrels red and paint the calipers red and take off the pinstripe! But if you like it, leave it. It doesn't look bad, its just a lot of red around the edge of the rim.

You can get the vinyl any size you want. I didn't know how thick to get it. So I chose 1/2" Now I think thinner would be better. But I'm going to leace them on for a month the go back to all black.
