On a red z, I don't picture the little "nuggets" matching.

I think one without the studs would be better for red.

Studs would go with black, white, and silver/gray.

I have the studs on my 350 rims, they are an absolute nightmare to keep clean. Probably wouldnt be as bad on a black rim, but on my chrome ones, I'd prefer to swallow a shotgun blast than clean the rims.

I've had those studs and found them a PITA as well.

I suggest waiting for the concave's...if you have to have this I'd say gloss black with red, and see if you can get the studs gloss black as well.

brake dust gets stuck in the little holes of the studs and no rag can clean all the way around the inside of them. You pretty much have to get about 10 Q-tips for each car wash and take a q-tip to each one to get all he brake dust out.
