Tires
I missed where it said "with rims.
Having retro-fitted my '06 Deluxe with later model wheels, from a 2015, I can say it's not a direct swap. Axle sizes were changed in the late 2000s, (2007 or 2008). And in the case of my Deluxe, the rear hub width was way different. I had to unlace the late model wheel, machine the rear hub .4" narrower, and modify it for the earlier bearings, then relace. The front was able to be handled with custom made bearing spacer bushings.
So, essentially, you need to do some precise measuring to see if it is even feasible.
