They are different. I think the color inserts are a little tacky, but it would be cool to be able to switch from red to black and back.

Not too bad.... those inserts look like a bitch to clean though...

But at least you'll have the option to go without inserts in case they start looking dated...

Nice. I looked at getting these for when I need to get new tires/wheels...

You can actually see the rims on the car on tirerack...
Go to the page that shows the different rims. The "Return to Search Results" on the link you gave.
Click "How to View on Vehicle"
Follow those instructions...
It just shows a basic Balt, but you get a pretty good idea.

im actually like this close [---] to ordering them! i really like them man. i was gonna paint my rims but these new ones work out to be only a couple hundred more. they are wickedd. good find. and i love the red, i have a black/red them with my car so i think red would look good. and i also have a CF hood so the Cf insert will have somthing to match to as well!
