Rear wheel question
Does anyone know if a 5.5" wheel will fit on my 09 street bob. I know stock is 4.5" and I can make custom spacers if needed just wanted to know if this is possible. I would also be running a 180mm tire if that helps to know. Thanks.
A 18 x 5.5" will work with a 180/55/18 tire with no issues!!

all depends on which wheel you get, some are a direct swap, some people lace their standard hub to the new rim... I had to machine new spacers as the offset on the new hub to rim was different.
You shouldn't have any other concerns as you are going with a 180, if you were fitting a 200 you may need to look at a few clearance issues
