ya they do come this color. but i cannot find anyone who wants to get rid of them so i made them


You ass thats what I wanted to do lol.. Is it paint or powder coat?

Its paint, 6 or 8 coast of high temp engine enamel pait and 4 coast of clear. I just wanted to get a feel for the bronze/gold before i got them powder coated. also its a little cheaper, only was $20 rather than the $70-80 per wheel for powder coating

Looks good. I am about to do the same thing to my Marchesinis. They were painted black by the person that had them before me. I want to paint them back to the original gold.

i was going to do the dark blue, but figured the gold/bronze would be more. i wanted to do something people would auctually notice. black to blue really wouldnt be noticeable...maybe next time i need paint i will try the blue just to see

You should armor-all your tires likes the mexican dude my friend saw at motions that one time, lol!

He slicked that stuff all over his tires and then he rode the bike to the dealership.

blue would have been better. i could have gotten them done in automotive paint for 100 for you. but either way nice to see someone trying to be different. +1
