If you have to ask you know our answer is not going to be positive.
Bad idea

Yes, they would look bad on a black focus with dark tint. On any focus really....with any shade of tint to. :P

Not really, If you are going for a complete change like some of those ricers out there, you could pull it off nicely.......
If it was on a white car maybe, same with black, but really it's all in your personal taste, and after all it's your car and your money.

yeah get 'em as long as you like the style
worst case is you don't like the color then paint 'em black
edit: would look sweet with the spokes painted black with the lip red B)

If you were going for a total Fast-and-Furious look for your car, they would look best with red decals and a big bumper with lots of red mesh. But on a regular and tastefully modified car, that much contrast will not look good.

I would buy them and then powdercoat them another colour. Those are MOMO wheels which aren't cheap and those tires are close to $1700 worth of rubber. Buy them and paint them!

Shipping is more than $300 and that's in the States ... and what will you do if there's something wrong with them. They're used, there's no guarantee and the guy's in Iowa.

Momos... good.
Paint colour choice by the illegitimate son of Ronald McDonald and Martha Stewart... bad.

I would confirm the 'offset' before buying those. They need to be refinished, that red is disgusting. Seller also has no feedback. I'd be skeptical, great price though.
