Well I finally put on my new wheels from HOG PRO on my 06 wg.. They assured me that they would fit. stock front. 18 x 5.5 rear with 200mm metz in back. They fit...by a cu-- hair. Looks great. Clears pulley and fender. Will ride it hard ,post pics, and report any probs. I recall a thread where there were some doubts about this.

I just bought a 2007 Street Bob and I know I want a larger rear tire. Is the 200 mm metz you got a better value than the 180 mm offered throught SE? I know I want a 200 mm but I don't want to have to change anything that would throw off the balance, make the left side a bit heavier ect.

I'd have to say that the Screamin Eagle is a much better deal...since you won't have the extra expense of buying an 18" wheel!

RE: 200 mm metz on WG
Yes the 180 from Dunlop is a better deal...you dont have to change the wheel....However....I wanted to change the wheel from spoke to other so it seemed the best way to go.. about 3K with rotors etc... It looks great. Definately a slight ride change with the bigger wheel and tire but I have not ridden it long enought to comment more. PICS are a comin!

Hey Veniculum the comment about the twelve year old is sick and i believe in very bad taste especially in this day and age when we have got little girls going missing and being raped and murdered. Not sure if it was just a dumb thinkg to say on your part but you dont get to many mistakes at that kinda **** wiht me.
