Take the paint off holds in heat. Causes brake fade quicker. Unless your driving low and slow then go with red. Which I doubt if your blown.

Take the paint off of the Calipers, the paint holds in heat. The paint causes brake fade quicker then non-paint. Unless you're driving low()(lowered?) and slow then go with painting them red. I doubt you are driving low(?) and slow because you have a V1 Kit intalled.

I'd say define the look that you want your car to have, if your going for a certain color scheme or something adhere to that.

If you plan to get some gold wheels in the future that could help to identify a color, if you want black wheels in the future... etc.


I'd say so them a dark silver to match the G35 wheels you want to get

I actually like red... mine are red.

I would suggest gold though.. it looks pretty sweet on most cars.
