Default Performance Machine Wheels

Looking for feedback on Performance Machine wheels. I’m considering selling my smooth laced rims and going with the Galaxy style of the Contour Collection. I think the Contrast Cut Platinum would look great. Anybody? Anybody? Bueller? Bueller?

Good stuff but expensive

Then again, good stuff is rarely cheap.

If you go on Hog Pro's website there is a gallery.

I am a neophyte when it comes to wheel replacement. What else will I need to buy and who are the best to purchase from?

I am not much of a wrencher on my bike and have always used Harley service for ordering and installing complicated aftermarket items. I just had new PM floating rotors and braking system installed...ordered and replaced at my local Harley Dealership.

I'd call PM and ask them prior/during your purchase as I'm pretty sure they'll be able to give you the information/product(s) you'll need.

There were helpful when I bought my brakes from them.
