I've seen several on the forum who've done it...on the right bike they look good. Check out the picture part (Softails and Dynas) of the forum for some ideas. I think that some of the Cross Bone owners have pictures you might want to look at.

If you go with orange rims, you gotta go with wide whites.

While Orange Wheels sounds sweet for my Bike What I just Paid for the Mirror Chrome Thunderstar they can damn well stay Chrome at least for now ..

There was a springer classic I wanted to buy once....
It had the profile laced wheels...
The rims were orange with I believe chrome spokes and black hubs.
It was awesome!
