Default Paint these white?

Hey guys. Found these wheels for a good deal. I was thinking about painting them white and painting the Konig impression Red. Maybe leaving the lip polished.

Let me know what you think or

I was thinking of painting the "Konig" red, or maybe some other color.

But definately all white.

What's wrong with them?

I think they'd look cool on a white ek.

no, maybe go full polished, but white on that rim? there's too much details on that rim, and white is going to kill it. personally, I think white only looks good on simple rims...IMO..

yeah, I think it will be difficult to paint it. But I think It could be done. I just ave to do good prep work, light paint and a good clearcoat.
