I am sure I can find you a 21x3.5 spoke wheel with the same color options as the stock if that is what you are seeking. The potential issue with the Slim that I do not know about is the fender with a 21" wheel. What are people using for a fender?

PM or call and I can get you pricing and lead time on the wheel.

I would only be interested in a direct fit. Unless you had the proper spacers.
I would probably chop the stock fender and adjust for hight until I find the perfect one for it.

I used the stock fender on mine. Had to make some extensions with 16ga sheet metal and a grinder. They came out ok. You can barely notice them

Me?
Black rim w/ spokes. One that matched well with the current FLS wheels.

Am I the Idiot here? You are going to chop and then add to a stock fender to fit up to a 21" wheel? Chop...chop what?
