PM El Dorado for 200 Tyre??
Hi Guys,
I am wanting to go to the 200 tyre for the back of my 01' FXST. I want to use a Performance Machine wheel called the El Dorado but I have heard that to use a PM wheel on a Twin Cam model I have to change to chain drive (which I don't want to) to get the clearance. There are 2 types of 5.5" x 18" wheels and one is for the 200 tyre but apparently that is only if you have a Evo model.
Has someone had any experiance in using a PM wheel for the 200 tyre on a twin cam?
Thanks guys.......
Cheers.

If you use a 200 tire, you'll have to go chain or use an 06'belt.I have a Metzeler 180 on an 18x5.5 wheel and it's CLOSE.An Avon 180 will give you more room.
