    8's you will have a ton of tire's to pick from..10's will limit your selection

    you could run the honda rim, but you will have to run the 250r front hub. or find a 85 1/2 front rim off a Z ,they were silver,but good luck getting one there getting harder too find.
    another option is glass bead blast a gold one and have someone polish it.

    another option is to get some banshee hubs that are 4/115 pattern..and that would open a bigger slection of rims also!

    it does but not as easy as you think..it requires multple cans.. multple times and your still left with a dull rim. that needs to be polished..
