Been down that road myself, heres a couple of options. you can get any set powdercoated or anodized a similar color or the only other thing I found is that you can get OEM replacements from yamaha but that is really pricey.

gotcha. thanks man. every now and again i can find a set at a swapmeet, and its always at a time when i'm broke. thanks again.

i painted mine they look pretty good. i used gold engine paint and i did it real quick. its like a flat gold color.

OOPS I just painted a pair silver. The ones I have are off a warrior. They have a thick bead where the stock blaster ones are real thin and roll over. They are a half inch wider. Made my tire a little shorter and wider.

im pretty sure the old yamaha moto4 quads had gold or copper colored wheels

 

[flyers42091]

yeah my moto 4 has gold rims, but there not the same pattern as a blaster

I like the warrior rims, I have a set on mine, But I got mine turned around so it looks like I have deep dish rims on the front lol.

The original Warriors and Banshees have the gold rims. The fronts will bolt right on, but you need Banshee hubs to put the backs on.

thanks for all the info guys. i didnt know they were warrior/banshee. i didnt know what the hell they were.

just pick up a broken ass old school like 87 88 warrior rolling setup, and take the wheels and tires, and part it out!
