Need help with rear wheel sizing issue
I have a 98’ dyna fxd superglide that has a bent rear mag rim. My friend dropped me off a very nice tubeless wire spoke rim but the sprocket hub size is smaller than the hub OD on wire rim. Also rim is overall ~1/2” narrower than stock 13 spoke mag. Is there a combination of spacers and/or adapters to make this fit?

Is the axle size the same on donor rim?
Also the older bikes use roller bearings wheel newer bikes are sealed bearings.
From a distance and based on information provided it reads like rear pully axle hole is a different size than mating hub on rim.
Keep in mind that using a newer wheel is possible but bearings, spacers, rotor, pulley, some machine work and sometimes a caliper change comes into play.
It is somewhat of a dance to get everything lined up and there are a few posts online.
Sometimes it is just easier to get a same year wheel unless you are changing style or something.
This is a link to a parts finder that might help you to better explain situation.
