I've got the same problem with my build. When I first got the OCC I thought I'd at least use something off of it. Still think the bars are cool, but not on this build. Maybe on the bike I'm building for my grandson. Your bike is lookin great though! I'm still waiting for some lower humidity to paint my frame etc. Very humid here the last few days.

Wait wait wait, I clearly see a rear wheel in alot of these pictures.

If you're looking for a wider rim, perhaps a Felt in silver/alloy. They're not cheap, but they look AWESOME.

or this one from ChopperUS (again not cheap, but WOW!)
