opinions needed

[agentpineapple]

i'm looking to get hold of a spare set of wheels, front wheel is sorted, i'm now just trying to get hold of a ninety's blade 6 spoke rear, once i've got one, i will be powder coating them, the first set i have is plain black but what colour should the second set be? heres where you guys come in, my bikes tahitian candy blue, so what colour do you guys think i should go for??????????


this ain't my bike......

[mad4it028]

white or silver

[lumpyv]

well bsm the colour wheel suggests a sort of sandy yellow colour (horrible) i would suggest black, maybe that sort of polished gunmetal porsche black?

[lloydie]

Silver would look good with blue rim tape


Sorry officer
The voices made me do it

[turbo_billy]

Gold with either polished rims or solid colour with "Honda VTR Firestorm" rim tapes to break the colour up........but thats just my opinion

[marravtr]

yellow, they'll turn quicker, thus making the bike faster!!

Get them chromed.

Or black chrome.....

Thought you were going for Giraffe or Tiger print?

i looked into carbon dipping them, but because they would have to do both sides of the wheel(unlike a car) it would cost £100 each wheel....ouch!!!!
i like the idea of white but i wouldn't want to keep cleaning them.
silver or gold are reasonable options, i'll have to have a search on the interweb to see if i can find a similar colour bike with silver/gold wheels.
i could always go with the same blue because i will have lots of paint left over, but i think that would be to much blue.
i would seriously consider gold if i was to get my forks redone in gold(and for tonys benefit, not real gold )
keep the options coming guys.....

I am having mine done in the same bronze colour as the engine cases on the bike. When they get sorted (eventually) I will stick some piccies on here for you.
I had to recover the wheels from the last place as they had them for too long with no finish date in sight.

Get them Nickel plated if you have the wonga

[agentpineapple]

i think nickel plating will be similar to white when it comes to cleaning, i like your idea kev, but our bikes will be to similar mate

seing as you have two sets of wheels and they are easy to swap over, sprocket inclued, have one set for winter, and one for summer

then the flashy set wont get wombles and you can have a bling bright finish
