yes i have a 21 x 2.15 on it now. i want to go wider to a 21 x 3.25 rim.
NEITHER GO with a FAT twisted or ribbed but go with a FAT spoke... HD wheels makes em... get stainless of course... i have had my twisteds for about 2 years and LOVE THEM just wish i would have gone with the fatty twisteds they have now
there is a few fellas on here with a 21 twisted on thier wide glides as well... a Ripple spoke and Dimond spoke also ROCK!!!! if you do not go fat, go dimond!
here are a few pics off their website:

I like smooth spoke personally...
Joe those are the best pic. I have ever seen of your bob... the lighting really shows off your gloss work and the covers you matched up look real good! The wheel stripe would be really cool in your cherry color.

I like those wheels.... 110.. that seems pretty reasonable.
