I've got a set of rims like those. I was thinking about polishing the machined aluminum and repainting the inserts a gunmetal colour. My car's a 92 RS painted polo green.

(on a side note, do you know if the 15 x 7 rims were sold with 92 camaros, or if they were supposed to come with 91-92 16x8's?)

I think that I like the red ones, but if you can, go for red and black.

Compromise.

I would choose Black. It would match the Headlight area and front Grill.
