is that a 240 rear??

Sure is, and I enjoy answering questions that weren't meant for me :laugh:

They look great. What color is the rest of the bike?

Thanx, I went with paint cuz with coating i wasnt gonna be able to get the color that i was looking for. And yes its a 240 wheel that will be mated with a 6" over Roaring Toyz arm.
 
The powder coater I use has 1000s of colors and candies but that paint looks awesome.What wheels are those??
 
I'm not much on gold wheels but they do look sharp.:thumbsup: Have you thought about maybe some lettering,stripe or contrasting color in some of the milling work to break up the gold? Just a thought and may make them pop a bit more. ???
 
Dayum Big Moe I would be excited too! They are badazz:thumbsup: I bet they would look good on a black Busa:whistle:
 
Those are great looking. What kind of paint do you use for wheels?
Is it same as you'd use on the rest of bike or a more tougher type?
 
I love the wheels. Just a thought and it is a lot of work. Have you thought about painting the little slots in the wheels blue to match the bike? I think that would look awesome. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

They look great. Glad to see someone else use paint. I have had my painted wheels on for three years now and know problems. No chips or scratches. I use PPG for the clear. I had the same problem with powder coat you just can't get the color you want and it looks flat. The only powder coat i use is for my headers to keep them cool like the top fuelers. With paint i can use a little of this and a little of that. And the pearls and flake the same thing.
