Default Anyone got pics of black wheels on an RK?

Thinking about getting my stock wheels powdercoated black but would first like to see some pics of black wheels on an RK. Googled it but not much results, if anyone's got any pics would be great to see them.

Would be a waste of money on stock wheels don't you think? You can't even see the back one and the front one is almost completely covered by the rotors?

I bought used laced wheels and took them apart and powdercoated the hubs and rims. I'm on a tight budget upgrading my bike.

I love the way these wheels look - with the chrome spokes and black rims.

That pic helps me. Been wondering how contrast chrome would look on my bike. Maybe the contrast chisel wheels that Harley has.

Good post OP! Been wanting to see this myself. After cleaning and putting air in these factory rims, I am ready for something different.
