Re: Need opinions please...
It would look good. Try it on one and see for yourself in person and if you feel it wasn't the correct choice you could just paint it black.
Typically I only see this done on sports cars with large openings in the rims because the calipers are usually visible. On the Titan rims they are hidden a bit more. Clint

Re: Need opinions please...
I agree with Clint. I always liked that look on the sports cars. I also kinda like the yellow ones that Porsche offers, but then, I haven't seen a Porsche I didn't like.... or a Titan... Better yet, do the calipers in red and paint "TITAN" in white on them.

Re: Need opinions please...
What about a deep blue instead? Not so much contrast.

I would not do red on your truck, but that's just me. However, if you had your heart set on painting them I would go silver. The silver color will clearly show you have detailed this part of your truck, but it won't be so flashy. I suspect if you went red they would become a very important visual element because of your truck's color.

Re: Need opinions please...
I don't think it looks good. It just doesn't match the truck.
