Default Wider front tire/wheel on fxst

How hard would it be to change the front tire on a 07fxst to something alittle wider.
I like the look of the heritage.
Would it make more sence to trade in for a bigger bike?

The 16" heritage wheel and tire will fit with the apporpriate spacers, your current fender won't.

you can go 18 X 3.5", 19 X 3" or 21 X 3.5" with your front end easily... check out the gallery at www.hogpro.com, lots of nice combinations. If you would like to change your front end, I have an 07 Fatboy front end that I am looking to swap out for an FXST front end (completely chromed out, including headlight front wheel ( you can buy my rear wheel too)...how far 'Heritage' do you want to go and what are you taking off? Do I smell a swap? :-)

Shame you're all the way up in Canada, I've got an FX front end off my 'Train I'm looking to sell.
