Wide Tire Kit
I have an 2005 FXSTB....I am looking to upgrade from the 150 size tire to someting bigger, at least a 180. I am looking at the Hearland 180 conversion....I can do the whole kit (seat, fender, paint, tire, rim, etc) for around $2,500 installed....Does anyone have this kit on their bike and so can you please post some pics and some info(easy/hard install, how much$$$, best place to buy)...Thanks

RE: Wide Tire Kit
I put a 18 X 5.5 wheel and a 180 tire on my bike without any wide tire kit using the stock swing arm. \\;\\\\\\;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\; Changed to a wider fender, a 20mm belt and 70 tooth pulley \\;\\\\\\;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\;
Thanks...I have a 2005, I believe it has a \\;70 tooth pulley, not sure about the 20mm belt. \\; If that is the case, I should be able to just cut the frame horns, add a different fender, wheel &\\; tire, and be set????????

yes, \\; i had to cut the frame horns off with a sawzall, \\; but it was so i could fit that stutless fender on. \\; i have a 99 train and the stock pulley was 65 tooth, \\; not sure about the 05. \\; no extended tank, \\; just stock.
