pics of 18" wheels?
Hey Guys,
I was wondering if anybody has pictures of a Deluxe or Heritage with 18"laced wheelsor even just an 18"on the front? I'd like to fill out my front fender a little more but don't want to go all the way to a 21". I still like to have the balloon tire effect to some extent.

I don't have a pic for you, but did you ever consider a 19" since you don't want to go 21"? I think the 19 looks good, but I am a bit partial to the 21.
18" looks good too. It's very common to go to 18", but a 19" would make you stand out a bit more.
Here is a 19" front (though it isn't a wire wheel) from the HogPro site:

19" would be cool with me too... so long as I could somewhatretain the fat tire look. I'm not looking for the agressive lo-pro racing tire look. I like that look, just not forthis bike. I'm looking for a more subtle change. Odds are, I'll end up just getting another set of 16" but with 60 spokes. If I'm gonna spend the dough, I want to be sure first though.

I'll have a picture this weekend of a 19" front, and 18" rear on my fatboy. They are billet wheels and of course a little different fender, but youll get the idea. I was going to have them on this past weekend, but a late ups train delayed my getting them until yesterday.

Spike...I too contemplated on a 21" front wheel myself because of the tire size, so I went with a19" and I really like the look. I will be orderinga customized 60 spoke soon. Here's a pic of a 19" billet on my scoot with a 130-70-19 Metzler. BTW, rears are 18"

Thanks for the compliments. Don't get me wrong, I love the way my scoot with the shoes I have on now and will most likely keep them handy.

RE: pics of 18" wheels?
Thanks for replying PhatDLX, but your pictures aren't showing up. It's just the little boxes with the red "X" in the middle.
Edit: Never mind. They are showing up now. I don't usually like billet wheels, but those are very nice and tasteful. They are actually some of the best looking ones I've ever seen. Do you know if anyone makes a fatter front tire to fill up the fender just a bit more? I'm trying to get rid of my "overbite". Your bike looks great.
