Your wheels look great. Wish I had the courage to do white on my wheels. I have been thinking about going gold, but your white is awful tempting to me also.

Those wheels look very nice. IIRC, some company makes a wax especially designed for use on wheels, and supposedly it works quite well.

The stickers are beyond cool. Gotta love eBay. I got all kinds of cool stuff for my Bimmer there.

My bike has '91 wheels because they're gold. However, it's a dull gold, and while the wheels are in great shape, I've been meaning to get the powdercoated a brighter gold. I think it would look really nice.

My real question is "Your wife lets you keep rims in the kitchen?" (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/unsure.gif)

Ha ha, my wife wasn't actually home from work yet but she actually endorses my bike habit. A couple of years ago I actually restored a vintage Honda over the winter in one of our spare bedrooms. I rode it out of the apartment in spring and she took photos while I rode it through the hallway! (IMG:style_emoticons/oldemoticons/biggrin.gif) Boy it's nice to have an understanding wife!
