Go with a 3.5" if not running a WW. If they made a WW to fit a 3.5" i would have got that one. Currently i am running a DNA 3" (tubeless)with a Avon 90/90/21....DNA makes a great wheel...sounds like you building something ...

Default Ordered them
Well,
I went ahead and did it. I ordered my wheels today direct with dNA. I had no problems the lady i spoke to was very friendly and said it would be only 3 days to build them. Not sure if they are lying or not but i guess we will see. Cant wait to get them and see what a 21 inch front wheel looks like on the front of my fatty. Ordered 2 weeks and 2 rotors for 915.00 plus shipping.

should have went through american classic motors. DNA direct wanted $549.99/wheel. I got mine for $339.95 shipped through ACM. As for rotors they come cheap from e-bay. Got mine(DNA SS) for about $114.00 shipped. $900.00+ seems high. Whats a couple of hundred $....200 Dbl cheesburgers i guess...great wheels/rotors though
