Just messaged jirehcycles about a set for my 88 heritage softail. I am hoping to get a 21x3.5 front black rim with the chrome spokes and a 16x3.5 same rear.

Yes. A 21 will fit under a stock fender. It's tight but it goes

Thanks for the reply!! Trying to budget funds and a custom fender on top of it all would change a few things. Thanks again!

I was told they will be available again end of April....

Your bike looks just sick... Did you have to do anything as far as the rake? I was told if I went to a 23 I would have to do a 5-7 degree rake. I have been told it is not necessary on the 21 but wanted to ask.

Thanks

Where they Ultima's or another brand??? Does your brother have any pictures??? I would love to look at them and try to figure why they are breaking, perhaps a bad batch of spokes????
