My first choice would be to polish them. They can be polished just as shiny as the chrome rims. My second choice would be to paint them the same color red as the tank and last, you could get a silver wheel paint that would look good as well.

BTW, glad to see that you're making some progress. I don't think you had the motor in yet the last time you posted pics. Nice work.
