Having seen it done to a few bikes (jays, for example looks awesome!) i really fancy getting some pinstrip rim tape for my wheels, but just like the missus shopping for shoes, I just can't make my mind up on what colour to have, so i thought i'd ask the experts on here.
Heres the bike:-

I recon red, i think white would look out of place for some reason and the red goes with the GSX-R stickies

A blue to match the lower colour on the fairing

id go for black ones, but you could save yourself time by just leaving the wheels as they are.
all black wheels look spot on on gsxr's.
