the lure of powdercoating. (Which, by the way... might be something to add to the pole... something like powder coating the rims white? Too much?)
I think it would look bad *** if the wheels were white

I would vote Too much if he were to go with a Full Powder Coating of white. Maybe just the inside of the rims??

They are a lot easier to put on then you think..you dont need stands just sit on the floor and roll the bike... Mine went on perfect in about 15 min.

I later removed them because they didnt last too long.

Didnt last long? elaborate? they came off? or just looked nappy after a while?
