16" rear wheel option

Can it be done, is it possible to replace the 17" wheel with a 16" on a 06' Street Bob, there are alot of nice wheels out there but the 16" seems to be more common...

Go 18". I think the more wheel and less tire the better. It's a trend in all the automotive industry now a days and a good one in my opinion.

Anyone besides basic running a 18" rear wheel setup? Do you have to go to a 180 tire in that case?

There are a number of Touring guys that go with 18's , you can co to a 180 on the Bob , but ususally go down in aspect ratio to keep the overall ride height the same.
