Hmm. Bit hard to say without the tyre, but first impression is... yes. I'd say a third of that... just the first "lip" if you see what I mean. Just my opinion! Others may disagree.  |

I think that BB has nailed it, either that or even less with just a red stripe between the lip and first edge.
The jarring of the black red and matt green is still hurting my head. Might it work with a green stripe, but prehaps a gloss green in the same shade as the nato?

matt red would be better, think it is too much contrast involved really  |

same amount of red as on my wheels! i think they look best like that. it makes the dish look bigger too.
as for the colour scheme, I'm not judging till i see them on the car!
everyone said black wheels with red rims would look silly on my car but everyone loves them now their fitted!

I think it'd depend on how low profile the tyres that are going on it will be. If the tyre profile is at least the same width as the amount of the wheel that is red I think it will look fine, if you know what I mean?

I was going to say, you'd need to see it on the car to know, but those potato chops make me think it does work.
