What Size Wheels For My 2017 New Road King
Hi,
Just purchased a new 2017 Road King this past weekend. But I wanted to replace the wheels with a set of Wire spoke wheels like on the Road King Classic. I found a set that in Craigslist that came off of a 2005 Road king. Will those rims fit? I don't know what size of wheels are on the 2017 or what sizes will work if I find a set or wire wheels. Can you guys help? What sizes will work on my 2017? Will previous year Road king Classic wheels work?
Thanks
Billy

unless you got the 'profile' spoke wheels - then the front is a 17" just like the regular RK

My new 2014 road king came from the factory with optional laced wheels, with tubes and 16" front and back. I did not know there was another wheel option for a FLHR.

So, If I find a 2014 Road King with the White walls and wire laced wheels it will fit my 2017 Road king?

I put cast wheels on my RK when I traded it in and kept the laced wheels for my 2017. I checked the internal spacer and bearings [ install kits ]and they are the same for 2017 touring bikes
