It is common for most motorcycle owners to paint only their wheels when customising their ride, which is not done with the intention of matching their bodywork. Most bikes, fresh out the factory, possess a simple yet boring paint job, which is usually only one colour.

Painting wheels is a specialised job as a result of the large amount of wear-and-tear wheels are exposed to on the road. Finishing off with a clear coat will help ensure the wheels are protected for longer.
