I'm thinking about buying Comstar rims for my 1980 Honda CB750K, it currently has spoke rims. Has anyone done this? I trying to figure out if Comstar rims from a CB750C would fit. My plan would be to paint the rims gold. I've seen some gold Comstar rims for sale already but they are selling for around $1,500. I see the black Comstar going on Ebay around $400 or less.

I seen it's common on the CB750F and newer CB750 models but not the CB750K, this is the look I'm going for just for the wheels. Rims don't have to be the same design just Comstars.

The Comstar rims from the same year of CB750C should bolt up perfectly fine with no issues. As far as I know every mounting part, axle, and wheel bearing inner diameter is identical between the two bikes, as well as the rear drum brake parts.

Be aware that the rear wheel is smaller -- I believe it's a 16 inch. You will need only one front rotor (the C came with two) and should fill the threaded holes in the wheel for the right side rotor with bolts.
