I recently gave my wheels a new paint job from the stock black to red. Still trying to decide if I like it or if im going to revert back to the stock color.

Any opinions?

To each his own.

Personally, I like it!

I like it! Do they make any decent tires in whitewalls? Just a thought.

I am on the fence. I wonder what it would look like if you kept the perimeter of the rim red and blacked out the inside and spokes.

I like it i think you need a red pin stripe or red buell logos to bring it together

Yeah I'm kind of on the fence on this one too, not sure if it's too flashy or not. Figured I can always invest another $25 in paint and tape to revert back to stock if I dont like it.

I think the white wall tires that someone brought up above would look cool, especially with charcoal colored wheels. The blacked out spokes and center piece with a black border would also look pretty promising. Something doesn't seem quite right tho, the red lettering might not be a bad idea actually...

RedWheels and Red Tank Logo

If you can still get the red letters, then add some red ignition wires.

Haha Microsoft Paint at its finest. Might have to do some googling to track down the red lettering. Red plug wires should be pretty easy to track down since they're just sportster wires.
