Can be tough getting the correct matching color because of fading or it looks off.

I was a little worried about that at first but after looking at other peoples rims eventually they all get dirty and they don’t match the body anyway at least that’s what my thinking was.

I think the red would be too much. The silver looks really awesome though.

I've been looking at wheels lately and I've only seen one vehicle with red wheels but the truck was tan though ....

If you are not thinking of resale of the rims and it is just for you go for what you like.
If you think you will be selling in the future might want to stay away from red rims.

Here are some renderings of the rims that I like.

I just went threw whole lot of powder coat for my expy, so it’s tough to match factory color, I want to do my wheels to my truck color, which is copper metallic, so we did a few pieces some came close others way off, so me a chrome guy, but all my chrome pieces was getting rust from working and being up here in PA, OH and Ky. Some I went with a silver metallic

Check out my couple post for 2008 Ford Expedition Transformation and u can see all the pieces I had redone for powder coated

Went with Wizzard Red and color matched the caps to the body.
