Believe it or not, I was planning to paint my wheels just like the Lo since like, a year before the Lo ever came out. When it was released I was like, "hey, Harley stole my idea!" Since the Lo became pretty popular, I didn't want to look like I'd copied the wheel paint scheme from them, so was trying to think of something different, until I found these:
They are stock FB wheels, cut, chromed & powder coated by Impress Plating & Polishing and I believe they are the only set they have ever done like this, so that would make them one-off wheels. Look pretty sweet on my Fatty, imho.

Hoggy, awesome man. They still have a Lo feel to them. Props!
I am curious though, no loss in strength integrity and still safe I assume? I know the fatboy rims should have no issues for such projects...but usually wheels are designed to be safe. Is why I ask.

I guess I'm in the minority here. I've had my Lo about 4 months and am already looking at new wheels. I'm most likely going with a set from Colorado Customs that will be gross cut in black with aluminum accents. The $ will hold that project off until after the holidays but not much longer.
