Default Wheel Dilemma???

I really am wanting to do a wheel upgrade this winter. I know I am going with a fat spoke wheels like the Mammoth or Fat Daddy's, but which do I get? I have a chance at getting the DNA Mammoths set (21x3 & 18x3.5) for $800 delivered. The best price I have on the Fat Daddy's is $1500 plus shipping from Hog Pro.

So any of you guys or gals that have had any problems and/or suggestions I would greatly appreciate any feed back.

Thanks!

jokr, post some pics of your wheels, would love to see the black spokes.

Dustmaker, don't know yet but I am leaning towards the DNA mammoths. I found a good price on them as well. People on here who have them seem to like'em. I don't recall any complaints.

Are you planning on getting matching rotors and pulley as well? I think if money is your main concern get the DNA's. If that is not an issue order from Hogpro. I have seen two sets of hogpro wheels be installed and they are definitely a class operation. jI am waiting for the money to roll in so I can get some wheels too, but who knows when that will happen. On my budget I think I am going to get the DNA's and matching rotors, but the pulley is more than I can justify at this point in time. Of course this is all dependant on the money rolling in first.

I would like to have WW, but I think my options are pretty limited on who makes them. I think Avon does make the WW for the front.

Anubisss, I hear you on the money "rolling in". I am trying to do mine on a small budget, with the extra coming from selling other toys. I do want to get the matching rotors and pulley too. They are much cheaper thru DNA than Hog Pro. Hor Pro wants $400 for the pulley and I can get both rotors and pulley from DNA for less than that.

Yep, my sentiments exactly two 18"X3.5 wheels plus rotors and pulley for about $1050 plus shipping. Not bad IMO.
