Default Problems fitting Mammoth wheels Deluxe

I justwonder if anyone can help me with a problem. Find a set of Mammoth Wheels here inSweden for my Softail Deluxe-07. It´s my friends who has an Deluxe-08. FrontWheel was no problem to fit but the rear Wheel doesnt fit. Can anyone tell mewhats the difference between them and if I can make some modifications to makeit fit?
My Wheelaxle are smaller, but if I change the bearings it should work. Then the rim isa bit wider than mine, so maybe if I make some new distances? Do you think thisis possible, or its there some more differences that I should know?
Tire dimension 150/80-16

measure the hubs width to see if your spacers will work. if the axle won't go in it's probably a 1 inch axle an 25 mm bearing. when I had my V rod an upgraded my wheels on it a lot of guys ran 25mm axles up front in the 1 inch lower fork without problems.

Ok, I have an 19mm axle. On Deluxes from 2008 it's 25mm.

if you have a 19 mm (3/4 inch) you can get reducers/adapters to use the smaller axle with the larger diameter bearings.
