Default White wheels? Yay or nay? Photoshop request...

Thinking of following the paint scheme used on the '09 gsxr...

But I want to try something a little different and go with white wheels. Can someone photoshop them on this pic? Forget the rim stripes, I just grabbed the pic off the net.

Instead of painting wheels and riding around like a rice box show and tell, why not purchase some track time and learn to ride and get rid of those strips? Sound good? Okay good.

Not my bike in the pic, I just used it to show the colors I wanted. My riding is good but thanks for the tip.

Yeah that's what I'm afraid of. I've seen some bikes that look great with white wheels, but not with this color scheme. I'm about to just bust out MS Paint and try it. lol.

I think a dark copper color would look way better if you insist on doing something custom to the wheels.
