Many options are available for the rims as well. You can find various styles for motorcycle wheels to suit every type of custom motorcycle that you are building.
In selecting a motorcycle wheel company keep in mind that they should understand all of your requirements. In other words you want to work with a company that specializes in custom motorcycles and/or parts. Not just an order taking company.
They should be willing to help you choose each and every part your bike will need. For instance, do you want chrome wheels? Depending on what you are looking for you can choose from several different types of wheels. If you are looking for aluminum custom motorcycle wheels then you might want to take a look at the aluminum racing wheels. If that is not the right kind of wheel for you then you can find cast aluminum, or steel rims.
