      KYB shocks (white)
      Car (silver or black)

      Is the red tacky?

      It looks cool sometimes.

      Black, unless you're tying in red accents throughout the car.

      I had some red one's for awhile. They lose their dark color after a short time and turn to the pinkish side of red or at least mine did.

      Whichever ones are stiffer and/or slipperier. If no functional differences exist, whichever ones are cheaper/more readily available.
