Thanks.
I ordered a wheel stripe tape from a motorbike webshop. When it arrived I washed the wheels with a dish washing detergent and then wiped the edges with a microfiber cloth dampened with acetone. Then I just put the stripes on. They are specially meant to put on wheels (bikes).

A couple of questions .... 1. You could change them easily if the mood changes and 2. how do you think they will hold up to repeated washings?
. At least they stuck very hard as early as today when I checked them. And I drove in the slight rain.

Looks good. I cant wait to see them in silver though. I think that would make it look great. I personally like them all black best but you can always change back if you get bored. Nice job.

I actually voted for grey, but that's come out great with the red, especially with the finish on your rims
