painted rim advice

Next wkend im paintin my rims, I've got the Blue/Yellow color scheme and i know everyone is going full yellow or one and one....and I know yellow looks trick...but i was maybe gonna go with white rims(bitch to clean though)...or maybe do base of rims in blue and do spokes yellow....i dunno

yellow rims all over look the nicest on the blue/yellow 06s

where and how much

Make sure you post up pics cuz I have a blue n yella also.

I paid about 90 per wheel to powdercoat them yellow with a silver base so you get the flake that the 1000rr have. here is a pic it is not mine but it almost dead on. the last pic was mine when i was installing them  hope this helps you decision. i love it and i got my done with only had 6 miles on the bike. 

if you look at the second pic i painted the brakes blue on paint brush. i was going to powdercoat the brake it was just a pain in the ass i did it on my last bike. bleeding is but if spray paint it is easier

Hi guys- heres my blue and yellow- with powdercoated wheels with polished lips- gets more looks than any bike in my town-

Did you polish the lip yourself? I was looking at the same thing but in red. Can you get your wheels coated then get someone to polish the lip?

Decision made! Thanks.

polished lip is awesome man....you polish that yourself???

that yelloe powdercoat on the blue/yellow looks freaking SWEEEEEET.......

If you pull the black lower, paint it blue to match, then decal it back.....it would be complete....I did a crude paintshop job but you can get the picture....just my 2-cents....its plenty sweet like it is though

I went with Chrome on my red/black 05.....

Photoshop I did:

Rim w/ Yellow Spokes

Dang graphic artists.......lol
 
that blue rear rim would look good with a yellow powdercoat swingarm.....otherwise..too much blue on the rear....nothing to break it up
 
i almost did a red powdercoat on mine....possibly with black spokes.....but went with the chrome
