I've got an '05 Springer Softail FXSTSI and would like to switch from the 2.15 thin front tire and wheel to a 21"x 3.5 front tire and wheel. Is switching out to a wider front tire possible with the springer forks?

I dont know if it will fit but I had an 06 springer custom and I hit a pothole a bent the front rim. I found a used rim that came from a 06 night train...thought I caught a break lol. Nope...that was my first lesson in hub offset. Those two were not the same. I had my inner hub laced to the new outer rim with the correct offset...just be careful with what you buy.

 

Trying to remember but the 3.5 - 21 wheel fits the stock fender but I think you’re limited to a 100/70 tire. The110 hits the fender mounts.

 

Thank you! Knowing that, I'll be shopping for a new wheel and tire. I love my Springer but I think adding a wider/beefier tire to the front will balance out the look, imo.

 

Thanks for the heads up. I'll make sure the new wheel fits the Springer.

 

Going to back the size down from 100-90 to 90/90 greenhell. Memory is what it used to be. That’s what I run on my Train. Sorry for the bad info. G.
