Ride Wright makes the Fat Daddy 50 spoke wheels. I think DNA makes the 52 spoke, not sure though. Talk to Dr. V-Twin, he could help you.
I have the Ride Wrights and like them a lot. Very good looking wheel and no issues since completing the modification.

I had them on my softail.
They are great looking wheels and are real head turners.
Problem comes whem you come to clean them. I couldn't find an easy way of getting to the hubs so they were always caked in dirt and brake dust!

Ive been running dna mammoths for about 6k miles and so far so good. They are an awesome wheel for the money, a great value really.No tubes, no weights, no problems. KC International got me mine in only 2 weeks.

Can be a problem. I went to Harbor Freight and bought a package of assorted plastic bristled brushes on a wire stem (stems are about a foot long). I then wrap a rag around the plastic bristles, bend the stem and I reach in between the spokes to clean the hubs. Works really good!

Just ordered mine yesterday from Dr V Twin. 21x3.50 front and 18x4.25 rear with matching pulley and rotors,If you decide to go with the Ride Wrights.Dr V Twin is the ONLY place I would buy from.Best price and UNMATCHED service and reputation.

Yup, got mine through the Doc also. Very helpful! Have to order a new front rim (first one was damaged when bike got hit), but the Harley dealer will probably order it straight through Ride Wright, with insurance involved and everything.

The 52spoke fat spokes are made by DNA, the 50 spoke are made by Ride Wright. I run the Ride Wrights and they offer a lifetime warranty on their wheels. The DNA's are less expensive but you get what you pay for. DNA's are all made in the USA as well. Everything is made in their factory. I have been and seen firsthand. I believe in supporting what is left of American Industry.
