Haven't seen any, though there may be some out there for the Ligero or BuBu.
You could always have them painted or powder coated.

Jettin.com does chrome or black chrome for Vespa's. Contact them and see if they would do the same for Buddy's.

Yeah, those won't work. They're split-rim wheels for use on Vespas/Stellas with tires requiring innertubes.

I've been on the lookout for Buddy wheels that are a little nicer, but haven't located anything yet.
