Default What finish for carrozzeria wheels????

ok, cant decide, and after hours on photoshop, well i cant get the images adjusted. So, for an '04 red/black f4i, as seen in my photos, what wheels would you suggest, polished or black?

I'd say black, but if you plan on polishing parts on your bike go for the polished.

You'll be surprised how good the polished wheels will look with the aluminum frame. I have a black Aprilia Falco, and wanted to get black forged wheels for it. I bought another set of stock wheels for the track in the meantime, powdercoated silver, and found that I like the look a lot more than the factory dark grey. I have an early model with the exposed aluminum frame.

I don't know what I was thinking, for some reason I thought he had an '03 with the black frame. Its a toss up I guess for me. Polished wheels would look really good too. Try to find someone thats got polished wheels on their bike and go from there.

Like Wesley Snipes said in the movie "Passenger 57".........


Always bet on black.


What a terrible movie too by the way.

I'll always vote for black. Chrome or polished looks cheap to me.
