RE: WIDE TIRE KIT QUESTION
My ride came with the 180 installed but from where was stated in the forum is that there is a bracket that holds the wires out of the way under the fender.
As for the size wheels you need/want, I can't answer that.

RE: WIDE TIRE KIT QUESTION
If you are going to spend the money on a wheel set then dump the 17 x 4.5 rear for a 18 x 5.5 rear and run a 180 of your choice. (Metzler, Avon, or Dunlop). When you get a wheel with a hub that is centered correctly there is no need for any wide tire kit. We have already installed 200 tires on '06 and '07 Dynas, although we recommend a 180 for a true bolt in.
