It's going to be awhile before I need to do this but this is the wheel I like right now.
Anyone have any suggestions I'd be interested.

Performance Machine Countour Series wheels are Custom built and 3D forged for a unique look. Each wheel is a work of art!

Available Sizes:
(18 x 3.50") (18 x 5.50") (21 x 2.15")
Polished Call - Chrome Call

(18 x 8.50") (18 x 10.0") (18 x 10.5")
Polished Call - Chrome Call

Could someone explain these sizes to me?

18 X 3.50" (front?)
18 X 8.50" (rear?)

 

I love that wheel. Would look awesome on your bike.

 

18 inches tall and 3 1/2 and 8 1/2 inches wide.

 

Does anyone have, or know of someone who has, these wheels on their Fatboy?
I'd like to see what they look like.

Hogpro gallleries have softails (including fatboy's) with many different customed
wheels but didn't see one with these wheels.

 

An 8.5" wide wheel would have to run a 240mm tire. I don't know if you have a wide tire kit on your fatboy ( PM Phatail or Heartland 250 etc.) but if you don't and you have a late model fatboy with the 200mm factory tire, I would recommend the 18x5.5 wheel and use a 200/50-18 tire.

 

my wheels are similar

 

Beautiful rim man. Just keep in mind that a wide rim like your showing
will look a little different when it's half that width. Make sure you see
them in the actual size your getting them in.

 

thanks.

Now, if I understand this correctly?, my 06 has a 150mm rear tire so to go with anything bigger than 180mm will require a new swimgarm and perhaps spacers? I've been told that even a 180mm might rub? I don't know? Regardless, I plan on making some modifications when it's time to replace the rubber. Because I only recently went over 3k miles then it may be awhile before I do this. My point is this, even to go with a 200mm rear tire is going to require that I go with some kind of conversion kit and the Heartland 250 is the one I've been looking into. I have quite a bit of time before I have to make this decision though.

I guess I just need to remember to go with 18 X 5.5 and 200mm tire?

Didn't I see a formula for how to figure this out?
