Default Changing to 19 inch tire

I have a 2008 Wide Glide with the stock 21 profile wheel and want to switch to a 19 profile hoop. Does anyone have the part numbers for the spokes to make this switch ?

These are the guys most board member seem to use. You can get Chinese spokes from Jireh Cycles for about half the cost.

I just wanted to ask.... Have you ever actually seen a Wide Glide with a 19? I know a number of guys who have switched because they kept bending up 21's on Chicago potholes, but almost every one switched back to a 21. They look pretty strange on the longer, raked front ends the Wide Glides have. Just askin'.

I've got a set of wheels from my Super Glide still laying around, I would be willing to break them up if you wanted the rim and spokes.

Pretty sure a Wide Glide hub uses different spokes than a Super Glide hub.

I am selling both of my 2012 Street bob wheels as soon as my new ones arrive.
Black with stainless spokes.

I'm doing the same thing on my WG. I found an all-chrome Super Glide front wheel, which also has the extra holes for a dual-disc set up. And +2" forks.
