your thoughts in this?
So I am kicking the idea around of powder coating my factory spoke wheels white. I have only seen a few bikes that go with all white spoke wheels and I like the look but I think a lot of that is the fact that I like the wide white wall tires. So just to help paint the picture, I have a black 05 Super Glide with the silver engine. It has a black thunderheader that will be rewrapped in white wrap. I want to black the motor but not sure if painting it will do it justice. Has anyone done this or have any pictures of this done on a bobber because that is my long term goal for mine.

Can you use that Plasti dip stuff since it peels off just to see if you like it? (wheels) I've never used it so maybe some one who has will chime in.

It'll look very out of place IMO, it'll look like some kid that has a beat to hell rusty and crusty 89 Honda civic with a fart can had some extra white spray paint left over after huffing and decided to do his wheels.

Plasti dip
I have half of my bike plasti dipped. I absolutely love the stuff. Only advice is have is don't be shy laying it on heavy. The more coats the better. Seems to be more durable that way. Good luck! White will look sick man!
