   does anyone no the best place to get rim tape for 15" alloys and opinions on the best size to have, as in thickness.
   my desire is white with white mouldings, was thinking black lensos, half tinted rear lights, black badges, with red rim tape. what you guys think ?

   Would look smart as mate, there are a few on Ebay, mostly for Motorbike wheels, but im pretty sure that they would do the job too, i have a red furio with black gloss VTR alloys, thinking about getting some red tape for the outside of them.

   why not mask and either spray or paint on your desired colour?

   My glossy blaxk 'R' wheels have a blue vinyl lip on which is obvs vinyl, but som epeople on here have used the ones on ebay. I think they are very similar to the motorcycle type if not the same, but from what i have seen some of them look thin, so the thicker/wider ones are probably the ones to buy
