I bought wheels, tires, rotors, and belt pully from HogPro back in December. They are knowledgable and very easy to work with. The quality of the chrome work seems to be very good (I got Hogpro Sonics). You may want to call and talk to one of the sales guys as they sometimes can get you a better deal than what you see on the website.

The only problem I have with HogPro is that most of their rear wheels are 18" applications.
With all due respect, the 18" rear wheels look "OK" on a crotch rocket, and downright hideous on a Harley.
JMHO.
I do understand that they just released Hogpro 17" X 6.25 rear wheels for the 200MM series Softails.

I bought my wheels from HogPro two years ago, I got a good price and great customer service. The wheels I bought are made by Performace Machince so I can't speak to the quality of the house brand. By the way, my front and rear are both 18" and I'm not sure I would use the word hideous, but to each his own.

I'm pretty sure someone would have to be blind to call that ride hideous man

Personal taste boys.
Not trying to offend, but the 18" just doesn't look right on the back of a Harley. I like the look of a meaty tire and a smaller wheel. an 18"er is not something I would ever consider buying, and I'm just letting the poster know so he can take a closer look.
Call me old fashioned..
Just my own personal opinion...

JV255, I never called "that ride" hideous.
Just 18" rear wheels on a Harley..
