Personally I have had bikes with taped rims, still not sure about the look.
I've been asked to do some wheel stickers already by a member that I'll be looking at today as i catch up with my requests and if someone on here would like to measure the inside and outside diameter of the flat part of the rim where the stripes go i could look at drawing some up.(The more accurate the better as i can cut the stickers to suit the T's actual wheel diameter so with a steady hand they will virtually drop into position)
Without wanting to cause offence i'd recommend a 9 - 10mm stripe for ease of application, the narrower stripes carry a much higher risk of going on wobbly and looking *****!:thumbdown
One other thing to bear in mind, i dont have my bike here to test this but i dont know how well the stripes will "take" on the factory wheels with the anodised finish, has anybody already striped a set of these?
