Default fat spoked rims for deluxe?

IM thinking of changing my rims to a fat spoked style. My? is wich brand is best and does anyone have pics. they can post. Also my deluxe is black and white. Would i have a more custom look if I went with a black rim with stainless spokes or maybe a chrome rim with black spokes.I think ill stay away from anything white on the rim I already spend to much time cleaning my bike.One more ? whats the bigest size rim I can install without any mods.I dont want to change the ride or the tire width( bigger is fine) nothing skinnier. I want to keep a nostalgic look .

Ride Wright makes them and so does DNA specialty. I think regular old chrome would look killer. Depending on your budget you could get matching rotos and a matching pulley. You should call Phil at Hogpro and talk to him. He is "the wheel whisperer." You can pick up the DNA wheels for less on ebay. I really don't know about qwuality on these first hand but those who ahve them say they are killer. The Ride Wrights are called Fat Daddies, and the Dna's are calle mammoth 52 spoke. Ebay them.

Check out www.hogpro.com. Go to bike gallery, then softails and check out the deluxe thats there. It's black & white and has the fat spokes your thinking about getting. Should give you an idea of what it would like.

That is one nice looking deluxe. When the dyna is paid off it's between a streetglide or a deluxe. Just think the deluxe is a real classy lookin bike.
