Default Performance Machine Wheels

Any of you have a set, and if so, how is the quality? I just ordered a set of Torque wheels and a belt pulley from them and I'm hoping that the quality is good and that they look good on my bike. To safe a few bucks I decided not to buy their rotors and instead are having mine polished. Any thoughts?

I can't really say anything about the wheels but I put PM calipers front and rear on my ride last year and the quality of those are second to none. I don't think I've ever heard a bad comment about PM. Good looking wheels and nice bike BTW.

Thanks JV. It's difficult buying something like this and just trying to imagine what they'll look like on the bike. Their website lets you put the wheels on your model, but since they don't have my paint, it's a tough one.

Yeah I did the same thing on PM's site last week. It really doesn't give you that good of an idea. I'm still trying to figure out what wheels I want to go with. IMO those wheels will look awesome on your bike

I really wanted to put the Ness Billet Bones wheels on, but at $2,000-$2,500 per, plus the belt pulley, the cost was astronomical. But, they would have looked bad.
I didn't see these Xtreme Maltese Skulls until after I ordered my PM's either:

I'll be home next month to pick the bike up. I left it at the shop for it's first service and to have some mods done as well as the wheels. I told them I'd be back in the beginning of October, so they know they need the bike ready. I'll be sure to post some pics then.
How did the Torque wheels look on the Fat Boy?

While I'm at it, anyone have any ideas for an air cleaner? I'd like to dump the football. I used to have a K&N teardrop on my ole Sporty, but I don't believe they make it for this bike.
