I did just the opposite. I kept my 21" rim and stock fender, but mounted a 3.25 tire in place of the 2.15. The tire is slightly wider than the fender and I like the look. It reminds m of a woman whose ***** are just a tad too large for her bra.

Gonna deviate on the question in the thread for this one.... Why do you think that? Don't some softails sharing the same frame, dimensions etc. come as standard with a 21" rim up front? Or is it the not the size of the wheel but the actual tyre that you think is the problem?

I like it. That is what is so great with motorcycles you can create the look that you like.
