3.25" wide rim / 120 - 70 - 21" Avon pre chrome version. Just be sure tire is spec'ed for the rim width you have.

Yes handling is 100% better than stock FXDB 100 - 90 - 19"

Widest tire that will fit a standard 21" Harley rim is a 90/90-21.

Default You won't be disapointed

21 inch by 3.5 and a larger tire works supreeme and has a better lean angle. Put a fork brace on and there is no comparison to the 19 inch stock set up. What an improvement in handling and stability

I went from the 19" mag to a 21" spoke wheel. Don't notice any difference in handling, and it looks great on my 2000 FXD Superglide

The only difference I notice is the skinny 21 wants to catch those little grooves in some of the roads around here. It tends to "walk" a little sometimes.
