Rear tire Fit Question..
 
So im thinking about an 18 on the back of my 2005 FXD i know that the 06 and up can handle a bigger tire ... but what can i fit back there??
180???

BTW i searched it and could only find threads that applied to 06 and up dynas..

Thanks in advance!:icon_headbang:

I have been told by a shop owner I trust a few years ago that with an 18" rim you can get a 180 on an 05 Dyna.
You have to mod the fender, planish the lips, and use T-nuts for the strut bolts, but I am told it can be done.
I run a 160 on my 05, I made my own spacers to be able to align the wheel and keep good spacing from the belt. I planished my fender and use the t-nuts, and have about 3/8" clearance on each side.
