I recently had my F2 repainted. It still has the white wheels and would like your opinion on what color to do the wheels in. The bike does have a silver metallic stipe on it. I am also planning on making a fiberglass undertail that will hold the license plate nicely tucked up near the battery box.

i would leave them white. that looks good i think.

 

I would do them silver. Just my personal opinion. But, you've gotta do what you like. It's YOUR bike that YOU will be riding. So, I say do what you like.

A slightly darker color would be less annoying inbetween washes...how do you keep them so white..?..you should spend some time rinding it...hahaha...

Duplicolor has some wheel specific paints...metalic pewter, silver, bronze (what I chose for my track bike project). I think its just meant to hold up to wheel cleaning chemicals...I doubt its any harder/stronger than other rattle can paint. It gave a nice satin/smooth finish on the 4 wheels I did.

i personaly like the white rims, mine are silver and i think ill paint them gun metal or white ( i like white better though)

mine are now black with a polished lip.. i will post pics when i get them back from paint..

 

I do ride it, i just clean it up after I get done. A little wax on the wheel and a water hose with a high pressure nozel works wonders. The seat is a Corbin, the original was painted white by the previous owner and every time I would even let off the throttle I woul go slide forward into the tank.[]

 

I say leave em white. But I do have a thing for white wheels.
