19" wheel for XLC
I'm considering swapping the stock front 21" wheel for a 19". I think it might look better with the mid glide trees. I need to replace my front tire soon, so I may just switch instead.
I'm considering the one below. Do you think it will fit? What width tire will the stock XLC front fender accomodate?
I have a 2004 XLC with the 3/4 axle.

Thanks.

Got the wheel yesterday and took a close look at it today. The width of the hub (from bearing to bearing) is 6.5". I measured around 4.75 on the stock wheel.
When I went to a mid glide setup, I installed axle spacers on either side of the wheel and a spacer to mount the rotor disc. I'm wondering if I'll need these spacers with the new wheel. This wheel was advertised for a Softail standard or WG. I'm begining to wonder if it'll work on my bike.
Also the mounting flange for the rotor isn't threaded. Is there some alternate mount on the Softail or Dyna model that I'm not aware of? Or is it necessary to tap these holes on a new wheel?
