I hear ya. It's all opinion but I'm not a fan of that blue they use on the oem rims.

I did it on my old ass gxr750, they were purple and I painted them black just using rattle can primer and then gloss black. They looked decent but I wouldn't go that route on a new/worth alot of money bike. If you are gonna pay to take em off and do them right then I would have them powder coated as it is more durable.

powder coat can cause issues with the metalurgy of the cast wheel if you don't use a low temp curing powder..

just sayin.

if you use the paint booth at the shop it'll cost you more than you could reasonably charge..

or did you get access to new facilities?

squid

hey now, in my defense I got the bike and it was purple/yellow and I made it black/white. But it was my first street bike so yes I qualify as a squid

when i saw you and al3x doing wheelies on your bikes on newbury street, i was wondering where you learned that talent. now it all makes sense

[seth399]

Rim and Wheel works in Newton..... Maybe Waltham strips and refinishes rims.
I'm not sure what they would charge for bikes, but they have fixed a couple of car rims for me and they came out very well.
