Need thoughts on wheels...

What do you guys think of these on a Chili Red w/Black roof combo:

The center caps will be swapped for Mini logos that fit perfect.

Let me first say that I know absolutely nothing about wheels...

But I like them! I was actually wondering about the same wheels for my 09 pw/b MCS. I think black wheels would look great on it, and the machined edge is nice with all the chrome on our MINIs.

I prefer all black. In my opinion too much going on with wheel design/colors distracts from the lines of the Mini. The Mini has always depicted the "Bulldog Look" and trying to go away from that theme is confusing. Just myho.

I think you are right.
