Default Ughhh.. I can't make a stupid decision

Today's the day I'm suppose to send my wheels out for coating, and I sill haven't made a firm decision on color.

Choices are:

black hub, rid rim
black hub, black rim,
black hub, leave rim chrome.

My bike is vivid black, and I like the idea of keeping the bike all black and chrome. But red rims sure would look great!

And I can't find whitewall tires for the rear yet.

Any suggestions, Please?

I would go with the black hub and red rim. Something about that combo that looks really sharp.

About the white wall there was a couple of guys that bought a white wall kit and did the original tires them selves. Do a search for white walls in the Dyna section and you should find it. You will see how the red really makes the white wall stand out.

I just added the nostalgic tank emblem from HD (which has a touch of red), and red spark plug wires withthe intent of going with the red rims. I just keep doubting myself.

Thanks for your opinions.

RodnReel,
I did the red rim powder coat with as Rob_will was talking about did the White Wall paint from Orn in Iceland. I did not have the Hubs done only because to do that I would have replaced the bearings and it would have been alot harder to re-lace the rims. I took mine apart myself and re-laced them up and had a guy true them up. I will say this, it was not really hard just time consuming. Dam, sorry got off track. I would say if you are going to do the hubs, black or red would be the way to go and I think black would be the best. As for the White Walls, as soon as someone makes them, I have a feeling that they are going to sell a few quickly, at least one to me. Other than that, the best I could find was the White Wall paint from Orn. Do a search under Dyna for White Wall paint and you will find several art. on it.
Good luck!!!

Definitely keep with the red theme. Pictures, we need pictures when you're done!

Red for sure since you did the other touches ("I just added the nostalgic tank emblem from HD (which has a touch of red), and red spark plug wires withthe intent of going with the red rims.")

Should make everything pop.

Must post pics after.

I ran into a slight delay today, so it may be 2 weeks before I'm able to offer pics.

I ordered a 21" front wheel which arrived yesterday, but I won't have the rearwheel parts until Wed next week.

Then I'm looking at a 1 week turn around time at the coaters.

I think you should coat them in "Fox Pecker Pink"
