    Smile New wheels?

    Hey guys, i hope you guys are enjoying your R8's as much as i am, even though here in Canada its packed with snow so sadly my girls parked up.

    but my question is that:
    Can any one recommend some rims for me, i have a 2009 R8, Fire red is the color. Right now i am on stocks they look gorgeous.
    I just cannot decied if i should get new rims or what to do, if i do get new rims i want them black with a red lip i know i can get that painted after but any ideas on rims?

    F.wi.w., I would suggest doing a photoshop with a red lip on your choice of wheel first, to see if you like it before committing to it.....

    Some have had good luck with a stuck-on sticker stripe on the wheel. Paint is too permanent.
