So looking at the wheels by themselves I dont really like the look of the wheel but it may look different actually on a bike. I have tryed searching on here and on google but I am just having trouble finding to many pictures. This will also give some people the chance to show off there sweet bikes as well :good2:
Thanks guys.
The fzr and gsxr wheels look exactly like the curved spoke fj ones, if you buy the 87-92 years
Fjmods should have what you're looking for. I think it's fjmods.co.uk.
True but I actually like the split spoke look of the FJ wheel rather than just like a tri-blade style wheel
Here are photos of the GSXR rear mod and the FZR front mod that I have, The rear wheel is from a 92' GSXR750 and the front is from a 88' FZR750R. Hope this helps.

The front wheel is an '88 FZR1000 Genesis wheel, the rear is a '92 FZR1000 Exup wheel.
Are those stunning wheels of yours powdercoated or painted Alan?

I had them powdercoated, and then I polished the lips.................That was a pain in the ass! But they turned out nice, and it was worth it in the end.
Hi Guys.
I have the 88 fzr1000 17" 3.5 front & 18" 4.5 on the rear.....

Polishing is hard,dirty,tedious & time consuming work!
Cheers :drinks:

If you want to go to 17 inch rims but still keep a split spoke style, keep a lookout for some old Performance Machine (PM) Chicaine rims. Hard (but not impossible) to find - especially FJ specific. Other models can be made to work - the bearing carriers/rotor/sprocket carriers bolt to the center section. Would not be a difficult task to modify or even remake them -- I had to bore the ID to fit a larger gearing on mine since I adapted them to the R1 front end. They are usually polished - I had to black them out of course!

Ok nice, some sweet bikes and amazing views in these pics thanks guys. Yeah I guess they have grown on me off the bike I am like no I dont like them but with the right color wheel and the right brakes they can look pretty sweet.

Had enough? This ambulance isn't mine, but it gives a good idea of what color-coordinated rims look like.

Damn, those are two beautiful FJs. Someone spent a lot of time on those babies. Pat, are you involved is this? :good2:

And just for fun, here is my GSXR conversion. Not as pretty as others, but still a point of pride for me:
