i would consider it long term though. A lot of the Mini guys have White wheels as it was a no cost option on Cooper S's, looks great when new, and BMW were quite definate on what colours could have em, and Red was one of those colours, But be warned they stain very easyily, and loads of the Mini owners have had to refurb very regularly as even with weekly cleaning the brake dust wheel stain the wheels, white wheels with yellow gunky bits look awful, and get so dirty so quickly.
Why not consider a mat grey, or go the oppsite and go for a bright silver with a more motorsport look, even mat silvery grey
