A buddy of mine had some stuff painted over at Nice n Easy in Chula Vista, on Main St. near the 5 freeway. It was nice work and cheap, give 'em a holla.

Talked to my friend's boyfriend. He has a customization shop here in Spring Valley. He said it would cost about $200 for both wheels. he also said he doesn't think it would look right and suggested powder coating only the spokes.

hmmm...thats an idea... dont know yet... im still looking into it... so most likely ill hold off doing it until i see a bike with the same scheme...

I say don't do it Marv, as much as I like white rims, they're a pain-in-the a*s to keep clean. Also will look kind of odd on a black bike! But if you must I was say either silver or red.

i hear ya arnold... i will most likely just think about it and not do it... LOL... but if i see a black bike with white wheels and it looks dope... then maybe i'll reconsider it... but i like how you think... the silver or red would look sik!

I dont know how Honduh does it, but my rims on my ZX7R were painted, i just stripped the paint off of the lips and BLING BLING...machined finish....close to polish without the hassle.
