Default Front tire and rim size

Hey tuff I’m planning on a new front tire. My front wheel is aftermarket and from what I measured with a tape measure it’s 21x3.25 with a 90-21 tire. I’d like to run a 120 tire. What did you go to on your new build, front rim and tire size and where are you looking to get an aftermarket front fender to fit that tire.

Also, have you ever tried a 210 rear tire on a wide tire Softail, and if so, were there any issues with the shotgun air ride? I’ve read the 210 will fit but don’t see much on how it would work with the fender moving up and down.

I've got the same size front wheel and running a 120, prolly going to run either a klock werks or heartland front fender

210 will fit and prolly not look back if you're running the stock 17" wheel but the after market 18" wheel is not as wide as the stocker so I'd stick with the 200. Right now I have zero clearance issues with 18x5.5 and a 200

Still far from being finished, but I put the tank on and re-routed the wires to make sure they are all tucked away nice and neat. over all pretty happy, I did order my rear fender today and they are talking like a 2-3wk lead time, oh well guess ill have something to work on next time i get home.
