Default Can anyone help identify these wheels?

Any chance someone can help me identify the model, year and axle size of these wheels I acquired? Thank you so much for any help. I believe the bearings are 3/4” based on looking up the numbers on them.

I'm no wheel expert, but since no one has replied yet, I'll take a stab at it... This is from memory, so no guarantees on this info..

If I remembered this all wrong, I will surely be corrected...

Those look like Fat Boy front & rear wheels.

They appear to have sealed bearings, and you say they are 3/4".

The 3/4" sealed bearings were on '00-'07 Softails.....

I believe the 2007 Softail went to a 17" wheel front & Back.

They are 16" wheels, so I'm gonna take a wild guess they are from a "00-'06 Fat Boy.

However, within those years the early bikes had 130 tires and then they went to 150 tires.. I'm not sure what year that width change occurred....

I'm also not sure if that affected the wheel width and/or part numbers...

I hope that helps you start to narrow your search for the part #...

At the very least, it may spark some conversation on the accuracy of my memory...

Fat Boy rims.

This turned out to be a difficult search, so I can't verify/guarantee the part numbers:
front 2000-2006 #41043-00
rear 2003-2006 #41091-03
rear 2000-2002 #41058-00A

Comparison to photos on eBay may help you to confirm which rims you have.

In 2007 the Fat Boy rims changed to "bullet holes"
[and in 2023 they changed to "no longer solid" wot??? but I digress]

OE_and_Recommended_Replacement_Tires.pdf (harley-davidson.com)

This document states that Fat Boys 1990-2006 had rim size 3.00x16 both front and rear.
So I suppose it's possible that the basic rim (i.e. without any attachments) may turn out to be identical in all 3 of the part numbers above?

Just a little off the subject - But are the FB solid wheels, like those shown made by Centerline? That is what I recall reading a long time ago at the start of the FatBoy. I have not seen "Centerline" stamped anywhere on my wheels as in the vehicle wheels they make.

Fatboy wheels (2000 and later) look alike, but in 2003 the offset of the wheel was changed (3/32" toward the rotor) to accommodate a wider 150 tire.
