Tire/Wheel Fitment Question
So being this is my first Harley, the fitments for me is a bit confusing, as in cars or everything else, this isn't strong suit. I just bought an Iron and I know it runs 16's and 19's. I plan on running 16's front and back (similar to RC's Iron Guerilla), but I want to run 40 spokes wheels, 16x3.5's and either coker or firestone champion deluxe tires 5.00x16. Now my question is, is there anything I can do to fit these with out cutting or chopping? Maybe wide-glide kits? I'm already going to the chop the rear fender down. I'm a total rookie, sorry guys!
An idea...

Yeah, I like that bike
It looks like they are using OEM 13-spoke wheels
Does your Iron have 13-spoke mags? If so, you already have the rear wheel.
It looks like they took a 13-spoke 16x3 Rear wheel and made it into a front.
Easiest to go wide-glide in front , maybe mid-glide with some mods to the wheel.

Wouldn't have to chop up...can be achieved with bolt-ons.
Maybe something like this...

Just an example...like you probably wouldn't use those fender adapters or Wheel spacer. They are to re-use your narrower Iron fender and wheel with those wide-glide Trees. You might want to / have to use a wider fender for the wider tire you'll want to put on a 16x3 wheel
