+1, but would love to get a set of XtremeMachine (Poison) wheels some day.

That is a great idea. Going to paint mine so it won't look so fugly. I bought a HD Thunderstar front rim, HD did not offer a Thunderstar for the rear (go figure). Only thing you can do, is go to custom wheels or get one of those after market chrome rear deuce rims.

Keep the ideas coming guys. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with my Duece rear wheel. Though about going the chrome disk route, but now I'm not sure. I already have the Thunderstar front, but I think that's going to be replaced as well.

I like the Duece rear wheel... If it's cleaned and polished.
They do look pretty bad if not meticulously maintained - worse than a lot of other wheels.
Another thing I did to mine that gives it a little more "pop" is painted the rough cast portion between the ribs. See attached pic.
