What colour wheels?
 
I'm thinking of painting my wheels.
The're a bit scratched from tyre changes so the next time I change my tyre's I think I might like to paint them, but what colour?

I'm bored with the look of my bike and want it to stand out a bit.

I'm thinking maybe:
a, gold
b, white
c, yellow
d, don't bother, at the end of the day the rest looks pant's anyway

silver or black..... maybe

gold,yellow white would look odd as it is, if there was more gold or white on the bike, it may work? IMO

I'm with Hovis on this one. Black looks good and perhaps Silver would work, but I don't think any other colour would.

Black... As they are. If you want to do something with wheels then get some 10 spoker's :D

I'm thinking maybe:
a) Purple

The wheels are already black so that wouldn't achieve much in the noticeable stakes.

John, you know there is only one colour that fits the bill and works with the blue

I think the only colour that will work is black, maybe polish the rims? so they are chrome and black?

dont paint them and buy a belly pan instead...

Agree with Bibio, I like white wheels though.

Maybe get the pillion pegs and the rider foot pegs painted/powder coated black, along with the front forks..

It's what I want to do with my bike, if I had the money :(
