Wheels are working out good. Had a bit of a rough start but I got lucky.
I had the tires swapped from old to new wheels by the local HD dealer. I usually do it myself but I was concerned about the marking up the black rims.
After I picked them up I did not mount the rear for a week. The front I did that day. Anyway a week later when I went to the rear, she was flat. A very slow leak. Had I mounted that on the bike and have it go bad later I would have been pissed. It was a bad valve stem. Took a bit of time to get a replacement as it had an odd angle to it, but good to go now.
