Default Quick question on Wheel size....

I'm having a hard time finding what the correct rear wheel size is for a 98 Heritage Classic . Is it 3.0 wide or 3.5 ?


Thanks

Part # 40975-86 ( with A, B or C suffix)
Width - 3.5
Further research showed 3.5 may not be correct. 3.0 is correct for the MT90B16 tire. 3.5 is correct for the MU85B16 tire. I can't remember what the '98 came out with...
