Might go with DNA Mammoth fat 52 spokes.. Contacted a dealer on here.. The Fat Daddies are just so damn expensive.. few questions..
Is it ok to go with an 18" rear wheel? I've read that most companies don't make whitewall tires for 18" wheels..
I have an 09 Heritage.. anyone know the front and rear axel size? 25mm?
Anyone who went with DNA wheels, how do you like them? What dealer did you use?
THANKS!

dna wheels
I have had my dna for about 2 weeks. Love them. I have a 2004 fatboy i went with a 21 up front and a 18 in the rear. I really wanted white walls but hated the look of the skinny front tire so i went with black walls and they turned out great. My wheels bolted right up no problem and i went directly to them. Some people will say that had a bad deal with them but mine happened to be fine.

I'm not saying go with either.I chose RW's after looking at the others first hand my opinion is the RW is a nicer wheel.They matched my color spot on,DNA didn't even want to talk to me on colors other than black or chrome.G.

Im in the same boat. According to my research, if u order the right hub size and DNA get it as u stated, no body can beat DNA price !!
and yes all 08/09 softail got 25mm rear and front while 07 25mm only in the front, 06 earlier both 3/4" (to cross check go to HD website, parts and check wheel/axle kits)
let me know which dealer ur getting from I need to get mine in due course.

Nobody makes a www tire for a 18 x 4.25 that I know of. Most likely you will have to run a 16" rear wheel if you want a www tire. The www tire on the front is going to be a 90/90-21 so i would recommend putting that size tire on either a 21 x 2.15" or a 21 x 3.0". If it were my bike I would go with the 21 x 3.0". The 90/90-21 tire is a little too narrow to fit on a 21 x3.5" so I wouldn't go that route. Avon venom, Metlzer ME880, and Dunlop make white wall tires in the 21" and 16" sizes.
