Default Need help with wheel fitment

Thinkin of putting a set of 09 streetbob wire wheels on my 06 lowrider. are these going to fit? I think I would need a new front rotor since I have a floater on my roadwinders. Are axel sizes the same? Any help. Thanks.
Honestly trust u guys more than the stealers. But that another story.

I've not got an answer to your question, but wanted to compliment your bike. Looks great, really like that color. The wire wheels will set it off, good luck.

I would think they would fit, my impression is the axel size is the first issue, you should have 1 inch right?
Love the sidewinders by the way!!

I am still wondering about the floater, but I believe my SB has a floater stock as well.

are you looking at tweekin? he has a nice set for sale right now...

Yes. I think his wheels would look great on my bike. Not that I still dont love the roadwinders, I just think they dont really fit with the direction Im going. I also seam to remember that the rotor was specific to that wheel.
I do believe the axles are 1".

I am almost positive that the spacers on each side of the wheels will be different sizes also.

your axles are 1" the 09 has 25mm... the wheels will fit fine you will need to use current bearings and spacers or better would be to buy the specific wheel fitment kit for your bike(new bearings and spacers) from H-D.

Rounder is right. FYI... without the right tools changing the bearings can be a HUGE PITA!. You don't need to buy bearings and the inside sleeves because you already have them on your roadwinder wheels. Taking the bearings out is the hard part. Buy some bearing drivers to install them in the new wheels.
Send all 4 of them to me and I'll do the bearing swap and send your new wheels back to you and keep the roadwinders as payment. I'll even pay for shipping
