Had the same idea years ago, but I gave up on it. If the chrome wasn't in good condition I may have gone through with it...but I couldn't justify the expense.

I ended up adding some spoke covers...came out ok but having the wheels blacked out completely would look great.

A couple pics of the front wheel attached.

I like the look of my '99 Drifter, the blacked out version.  I'm thinking of having the wheels powder-coated black, to get even more of a pre-war Indian look.  Has anyone ever done this, and does anyone know where I can find an image of such a bike?  I'd like to have an idea of what it would look like, although I already have a pretty good idea.
