Umm, no. 19" is 19" in diameter and 21 is 21" in diameter so they are no the same.

lol. yup, no. and on the second question no.


but the outside diameter of 21" wheel and tire is about 1/4 of a inch taller than the 19' with standard sized tires. Wide glide front ends are not the same as your mid glide..
