Alum. Goldwing wheels

[xcrider]

Are regular alum wheels (aka non-black wheels) fairly easy to find?

I just bought a takeoff to make a trike from Honda of Russellville. I bought a front rim off e-bay. I have not done anything with them yet.

The rear from Russelville is brand new never been ridden with the tire on it. You can also buy a new rear caliper loaded with brake pads.

Ebay is a good place to find them, even seen chrome wheels on there. There is another forum that has some available. Rear wheels are easy but the fronts are a little harder to locate.

I found my on Craigslist.
If you can find a rim from a 2012 or newer it will have a nicer finsh on it.
Or you can polish a earlier one like I did.

I agree....I'm sitting on one off eBay with an eye out for a front...but realizing its one more thing to keep clean...since I rarely have to clean the black rims

That's because they have a clear coat, 2010 and older wheels did not have any protection from the factory.

I have chrome rims on my Goldwing very easy to clean.

If they are real grimey, I pre-spray the chrome with Simple Green to soften up any dirt and then I just use a power washer and i'm done.
