I have a 2010 heritage softail. Want to go to a 21" Ride Wright 50 spoke rim and a 120/70 white wall tire on the front. The selection for 21" white walls is limited to say the least. Looking at an Avon Cobra. Heard to many bad things about Vee, and Dunlop doesn't make it in a 70 only a 90 which looks to thin in the stock fender. Three questions:
1) Will this setup fit in my stock fender?
2) Is the Avon Cobra White Wall a good tire?
3) Are there any other QUALITY tire option in a 21" white wall?


thanks

 

I put shinko white wall tires on my 2010 Heritage after installing a 21" DNA 80 spoke front wheel.

 

Have you thought about a 18" rear...IMO it would step you up a notch

 

Lower it & powdercoat the rims black. Lol

 

The 21" 120/70-21 WWW tire will fit your fender with no mods. We sell the Avon currently and they are very nice tires and the best available in a 21" www IMHO.

 

I have a 21" x 3.5" Sinister Fat 50 Rim up front. I am running a METZLER 888 White Wall......this tire is bad *** looking and handling. I have roughly 4,000 miles on it and I am not seeing any signs of having to replace anytime soon. Good Luck!

 

I thought about an 18" rear wheel but want to put stretched hard bags on my ride and don't think the investment would be worth it since I would be bagging it 95% of the time. Only time will tell….
