Default Wheel Help
Need some help guys. I'm ordering RC Czar Eclipse wheels for my Dyna. I have to go with a 18x5.5 for the back so no problem there since I'm going with a 180 tire. The problem is do I stay with the factory 19in front or go with a 21in? If I go 21in I'm gonna get a 120/70-21 tire so the width will be the same or just a tad wider than the 19in tire.

The only thing is a 19in wheel I can just swap the stock front tire and be done. The 21in I'll have to get a new front tire.

Thanks guys.

I would go bigger. Some 21" tires are only $100

21" tire is cheap, then sell what you've got to get a few bucks back.
