What colour wheels you got..?
 

My wheels need respraying, they look cream crackered, but I don't know what colour to respray them. The bike's blue, the wheels silver, but I reckon a light gold might look good. What colour have you got? Pictures would be good...

Mine are dirt colour.

Brake dust and dirt. And the back has more than a bit of chain lube.

Mine are a mix of black and patches of bare metal.

I need to invest in a can of paint and masking tape.

Ps not a fan of gold wheels but did see a nice blue curvy with metalic flaked black and gold rims once.

Mine are white hubs and carbon wheel arch

A friend of mine had his ZX10R wheels painted gloss black with a gold flake and that looked gorgeous when the sun light hit them. Sadly he hit a traffic bollard at speed and destroyed both wheels about a month after getting them finished.

I have just repainted my new front wheel silver to match the rear and it has come out lovely.

I used rattle can wheel paint made by a company called Car Plan and a really good etch primer suitable for aluminium. To get the old paint off I used Strypit paint remover and plenty of wet and dry paper and I am very pleased with the result.

Black, which goes well with my Silver curvy & black USD forks

I'm not sure, I'd need to break out the paraffin gun to check.

Blue & Silver I think.

I think you should go for the mix and match approach modelled here.
