That's the first thing that came to my mind.
If you do it, I'd use plastidip. Easy enough to remove for when you get tired of it and want to go back to stock or change colors.

I would say that most here are a more conservative bunch and won't like that color, including me. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't. If you like it, do it, and post the result.

As a professional artist and someone who went from neon teal to neon pink wheels--don't do it.
It is simple color-wheel theory. Red needs bronze, black, gold, silver, or a color match. Red and green look like sh*t together. If you are a bit daring, try and find the triadic between the two and you might *might* find a nice combo. Red and BRG are two of the hardest colors to compliment with 'crazy' colored wheels.

you see it a lot on racing livery. Red body with yellow wheels. DO IT!
Also, I agree do it with Plasti-Dip rattle cans. if you don't like it you can peel it off. And if you lug nuts are red as in the pic. I'd leave them Red. That would be very cool In my opinion.

Green can go with silver, black, and white (neutral colors), but not red unless it's during the Christmas season.
Orange and possibly yellow/gold go with red since they are part of red.

Go with Black, Silver, Gray, Gold, or Bronze, but the green with red doesn't cut it.
On the other hand Porsche does some color combos like this so maybe it works for some people.
YMMV

Hahaha, maybe bevause of the xmas spirit that inspired me....been thinking also the color from a mustang grabber blue?
I want something fresh and loud....but goes along with red....
Black, white and bronze is a typical color...

I think it looks unique, plasti-dip it just in case you tire of it quickly, and I suspect you will, your car, your style.

I like the green on the red car.
but if you do the green wheels, I'd do away with the black stripes :)

Perhaps the prevailing opinions will be different in the Philippines? My only contact was in Olongapo, but it wasn't someplace I would confuse with Kansas. :dunno:

I agree. Green wheels on red car is nothing compared to this.

Local tastes differ. In America, people would be wishing you a "Merry Christmas" -- in July.
I have no idea what people on your side of the world would think, but since you asked us, I'll vote: NO.

Also, the 1st Gen Viper RT/10 comes to mind: https://www.google.com/search?q=viper+red+yellow&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjXxO6FtaPJAhXDQiYKHUqqCjEQsAQIHQ&biw=1319&bih=703&dpr=1.36

Yeah, change them to green to match the wheels.
If you're gonna go, go all the way.

Doesn't sound like you're convinced either. Wait until you find the colour or wheel you LOVE. You'll know it when you see it.

The Grinch! My first though when I saw your photo. Maybe if your car was white but not on red, IMO.

I think day glow green would look awesome on a silver car w/ matching green stripes!

Day-glo green is my next wheel color once it warms up a bit.
