Just installed front and back wheels, 21” front and 18” rear, kinda struggling with the look, and the rise in height, I was going more for performance chopper, I love the color though....

I think they look great! Maybe not "performance chopper" but it's unique and just works in my opinion.

To each his own I guess...looks like a junkyard dog IMHO!

Thanks for the comment! Yah I struggled with where it fit, still have suspension/brakes to do next, and in between I’ll be doing paint and getting rid of some of the chrome stuff!

Finally bit the bullet and purchased the color matched king tour pak. It took 5 weeks to get in but I think it looks great. Cant wait to take our first bike trip. My cousin works for the local Harley dealer and he got me his employee discount which is dealer cost plus 10%. My total for everything was roughly $1800. I also looked at Surdyke Harley to price compare and the difference was only $40. From now on if I have to order parts I will definitely order from Surdyke.
