The wheels on my bike are a custom built set from Blackbike in California. They machine hubs from billet aluminum to OEM specs and full polish them to finish.Spokes are stainless, and the rim is their house brand also. 18x5.5 40 spoker. The fitment and quality is top notch. I recommend them. The front hub does away with the bolted on cap that the oem hub has for the brake disc. I like that.
J&P has a 18x5.5 rear rim for 200 bux and stainless spokes for about 180bux or chrome spokes for 70bux that lace to your hub. I can give you contact infor for Britt motorsports in Wilmington NC that will build your wheel for 2 hrs. They do all the high end show bikes around here and have a killer rep. check em out online. Their roadstar chops are untouchable. The J&P stainless spokes dont show online you have to call them, I may still have the part numbers if you need them.

I tried Black Bike Wheels and they are not quoting me only the rims. They sell complete wheels. How did you get them to sell you just the rims?

Blackbike will do whatever you want. Just give em the specs, hubs if you wanna ship em to them and payup! Bolt on new wheels and roll.
I still may buy some Fatbob trees and have them build me a wide 18 incher for the front also. Then I can have a fatty front end also.

I was stationed near them before I came to England, so I just pulled my wheels and brought them to them.

Ok so I want to do the 18.5 rear and 21" front wheels for my winter mods, I need new tires anyway. So the part # for the 18.5 says it is 5.75" is that ok? The prices are slightly cheaper then listed too. Will this with a 180/55 be ok on a stock 07 Street Bob? I know the 21x3.5 front with the 120 will work, although be very tight with the front fender. I just don't want to do the 21" front and not back. I am going to do the front with the factory spokes and the rear with the chrome spokes from J&P as long as everyone says it is good.

I have the 18x5.5 and could fit an extra 1/4 inch so I say the 18 x 5.75 will work. I still believe in the 180 rear tire though. I definetely have an room for an extra 1/8 inch per side on my 18x5.5
