Looks awesome,I even like the bigger front tire.
As far as badging goes,for me personally I'd leave as is and maybe find some subtle airbrushing art for the tank.Nice clean canvas and whatnot

The rear pulley does all the aligning an the front is way wider. I got the belt used off ebay for for around $50, I was trying to do it on a budget or I could have gotten a new one for around 110. The pulley was used off ebay for 75.

One thing I noticed is the 55 series tire made it ride rougher in back. A local indy told me that when you max out the tire width for the rim they round out an lose some of the wide look but if you run a size or two under they flatten out an give a wider look.

Nice changes at a great price, My old 2002 wide glide had a rear fender like that, I didn;t realize they were also on evo softails.
