well, if I didn't get the brake/pulley system, I could just get a regular chrome caliper and mount with a custom rotor.

Wheels wheels wheels... hmm :think:

If you want a Hot Rod look this is what I would do. Bright red paint like you said with traditional hot rod flames. And for wheels I would do the PM Judge wheels with matching rotors and pulley. For sizes I would do a 21 up front with a 120 tire and for the back I would go 18 with a 160 if it will fit. Since you have an '03 I don't think it would be very easy to squeeze a 180 back there. That combined with your front end and a lot of chrome would look mean.

That would look good, but I have never thought of tribal flames as a hot rod look. I don't know the price of the PM wheels, not cheap i'm sure. You asked!

Man I so love chrome. That fork rocks.

I would do 80 twisted. 16 in the rear. Would have to see the fork on before I could decide on the front.

Doesn't really matter. Whatever you do is going to look great.
