PaymentPlan Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I had to start another thread to get some comprehension on what tires/wheels to run. As far as bike colors, frame will be gloss black, same as engine cases. Plastics are matte black. Engine will be completely chrome/polish. I cannot decide weather I want chrome or black wheels. That is the color/finish that I think would complement everything else. Could anyone throw up some black or chrome wheel pics? Also too, what are popular wheel/tire combinations? Riding style will be mostly MX with some occasional drag and trail. You know how that goes. I'm thinking a smaller wheel, but I haven't investigated enough to make a decision yet. Thanks dudes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Hipers Omf No other option in wheels. Omf you can get in polished with a colored ring. You can powder coat there rings any color along with the rim. So I guess it's a little more options. Hipers are black with a colored ring. And you can't powder coat the hipers or the rings. So your stuck with there colors or spray paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrx46 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 polished wheels look the best, omfs and hipers are cool if you have the money. I've never had a problem with Douglas polished aluminum rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrx46 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Set the frame color off. What color are you're a arms, swingarm, spindles, calipers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your going to trail/mx or even aggressively ride you need a good rim. A blown bead is a dumb reason to miss out on a ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaymentPlan Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Set the frame color off. What color are you're a arms, swingarm, spindles, calipers?I'm not sure yet on the spindle and caliper colors. On most overhauled bikes I've seen, the spindles and calipers are matching the frame. So possibly gloss black? I haven't put a whole lot of thought in it yet. A arms will be LT fireball, not sure on those colors either. Current swinger is a black +4 turbo chassis. I'm going to run that swinger initially to see how it does with the 10 mil super serval. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaymentPlan Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I like the way this dark a arm looks. Just not sure what's going to look better, chrome or black. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
