Rim stripes yes or no

[MonkeyHanger]

Just added some Gold stripes to my wheels.

What do you think?

I'm not sure!!!!

I probably wouldn't have noticed them right away if you hadn't mentioned them, I dunno either, I am not crazy about them...

I like 'em. I want some. I'm thinking the blue reflective for the black bike.

Are those Tapeworks? How easy were they to put on? I'm still waitin' to see a closeup of some, either yours or the ones Corners did on his.

I can't tell MH. I'm about like you, can't tell if I like 'em better with or without?!? How are those ART cans doing??? :-D

Try this link boys. They were dead easy to fit too. Delivered next day (within UK)

I've seen Blue on Black somewhere here and it looked good too.

Cheap... sorry mate the Arts are in hibernation for the time being.

I vote against the wheel stripes.

Overall, I like it. I'm not sure if I would do it myself. Kind of worried what it will look like in a year or two but I suppose for that kind of money you just peal it off. Someone posted better pictures a few weeks ago.

I agree on the stickytape versions. Painted red wheelstripes on a black S3 1050 is the only variant I approve of. Gold on black might work also, but might also be too much like an imitation of John Player Special bikes of yesteryears.

Gold on yellow or blue on blue just does not look any good to my eye, be it rimtapes, radiator guards or handlebars. Looks more like the stuff scooter kids are doing and only one step away from a neon red sticker image of a skull on yer gas tank.

Painted blue stripes on a white S3 might work, but I would check in Photoshop first before going for it.

Here you go, red on black works I think. Although, just had my rims podercoated gloss black and am not sure if I will put tape back on. I think they wheels need something though.

Not sure of 1 years time. They'll be history within 1 month......
