Default Mag wheel question.

I've always liked the mag wheels 16/19" on FXs through to Dynas but now they're the irregular pattern with the big gap between pairs. I've got a 2006 Street Bob with wire wheels and would really like mags. Does anyone make the old style to fit a 2006 with the 17" rear?

Lower Unsprung weight, Better airflow, Higher resilience to bending/dents. Most alloys have some degree of purpose, but post that its just looks.

If you like the older versions Vulcan engineering make axels to swap. Opens up more options but not what some would call cheap. Quality is awesome and I had great customer service experience.

Thanks. I'd thought about doing a conversion either via an axle swap or bearings but I'd like to stay with a 17" rear.

But they didn't make the 9 spoke in 17's...
You'll have to go custom CNC.... Big bucks..

But I did find these. Probably the closest to what your looking for. Very good deal too..

I know , that's why I asked if anyone made them, as Harley never did. Lots of 19/16s available locally but thanks anyway.

my last swap was to a night train wheel in the rear, they’re 17”. Used my Vulcan axle and new set of spacers. Bolted right up. Also that wheel comes cheap compared to dyna mags
