You seen those? Those are awesome...wonder what they'd look like on a black slim? Are the bearing size and all compatible? Probably too early, but I think that'd look great!

 

yeah!.. those wheels look amazing... to adapt it to a Slim you wheel need a 1/2 inch spacer (I did something similar with my Blackline that shares the same rear suspension as the Slim) here is a picture of the spacer (installed on the Pulley side)

So a sportster wheel other than the spacer issue will bolt up? The drive pulley and brake disk bolt on even though they're opposite a softtail? No problems or rigging getting the brake caliper and all that back in place? Thanks for the info. I REALLY like this wheel.

 

yes to all the questions.. direct bolt-on other than the spacer ( here is the link to the spacer ( 1/2 inch thick.. part number #3912:

Any issues with the front wheel? Thanks a million for all the help dude...bike looks great. Unique. How do you think those new 48 wheels would look on a slim?

 

no issues with the front wheel at all...

what do I think about the new 48 wheels on a Slim.. how about FRIGGIN HOT !!!!!!!??? .... :-)

 

I subscribed to this thead when it popped up on one of my "latest posts" searches. And was hoping this was gonna go further into a wheel swap.
Thought of maybe doin similar.
Any progress?

 

For the rear wheel...remember to remove the tire and turn it around. Rotation direction is not the same.

 

I just ordered one to be able to mount the Fat Bob wheel in the back of my Slim S. 27.00 shipped.
