Default Affordable wheels?

Looking around for fat spoke wheels for my 2011 Fxdc. Want 21 front 18 rear, black rims- chrome fat spokes- not laced just straight spokes.

I have seen
Ride wright(to spendy for me)
DNA
Ultima offers wheels, but not sure it they make them for dynas

Any other company's out there?
Am I crazy to think I can find Wheels for $300-$450 a piece?

DNA seems to be the cheapest but I heard they are crap.
Fatdaddy is the way to go and I too find it pricey lol.
$300-400 I don't think so

Cheapest bet is to buy a hoop and new spokes. Lace to your hub and get it trued. And that too will be quite spendy. Prob $600 a wheel.

OK - to slightly hijack this thread - anybody got an idea where to pick up some mag wheels at a decent price? Probably end up going with some Harley wheels because they seem to be the best price. I hate spokes and can't wait to get them off my FXDC.

It's hard to beat the price of new harley mag wheels compared to the aftermarket stuff. If you wait for a sale and order from Surdyke online even better. I only paid about 1200 for my wheels and install kits. I then got almost 4 hundred selling my original non chrome mags on ebay.

Get Jireh rims and lace them with your spokes to your hub. I did my 21" front. Rim was $40. Labor, tire installed, and trued $200.
They do one for the rear wheel as well.
Best price you're gonna find.

I agree. I am getting ready to send them my hub and for $400 they will send me back a 5.5 x 16 powder coated to match my front.

I have been using my local Indy with Ebay used HD wheels. Last one I did was a $50 HD 16" rear spoke, chrome peeling spokes all grey etc. Brought it in to have it broken down, hub and rim PC black, laced with stainless steel spokes, new bearings and seals, trued, new HD Dunlop tire and balanced. Out the door for under $500. And it looked hot.
