I agree with BM here. The green stripe makes the calipers stand out more and it compliments your car. The red stripe just doesn't go well with the car.
You don't have to go and paint everything the same color, but black and your green go well together. Red and your green just don't.

Gotta say, looks great with the green pin stripe, not so good with the red...
IMHO,

The black wheels remind me of police cars from years past that had simple black steel rims because the local governments didn't want to spend the money for hubcaps. OR someone had a flat and put their spare on. It just looks cheap in a Nascar kind of way.
But if you like them, then that's all that matters.

It looks good, really. Maybe you could also echo the red for the air-intake grills..?

My preferences, in order:
#1: No stripes
#2: Green stripes
Sorry, but red stripes just don't match the car.
If I were to do mine, I'd go black with no stripes.

No, I actually think it looks good. And it might even work with echoing the red somewhere. But of course, most of us have different taste.
