Or why not:

Black tires
Paint the standard loop rim white
Leave the spokes stainless with brass nipples
Paint the hub black

You get some of the same effect

Final answer, Regis. Well that solves that problem. Maybe I'll just come

with a paint scheme. Black spokes and white tires?

Thanks for the info, that's what I needed to know.

I have a client with a Fat Boy - they come with solid
wheels - and he is changing them out because of the
terrible sail effect. I told him I like the way they
look, but he said they are a real problem in cross
winds.
