Needs a fender at the very least, the front has a dirt bike-ish look - too long, black trees and lowers would help too.

For comparison, this is a 3.5x18 with a 130 Avon Cobra FB fender will fit nicely, you'll have to redrill it but you should anyway because they sit too high, I dropped mine a half inch or so and it looks much better.

Im a fan of fat front tires but not on that bike. With street bob lines - maybe, but not on this bike. Maybe you can correct the lines with some higher bars or something.
