Cool 21" Rocker front wheel

Can't seem to reply to another thread for some reason, but been in contact wiht Paul Yaffe, they want 2000US for the chromed 21" 5-spoked OEM look alike wheel

Will have to think about that...

Are you only interested in someone making you an identical copy of your wheel but in 21" chrome or are you open to other wheel options? I ask because because you could get new chrome front and rear wheels for close to 2,000 usd.

Like the idea of a 21 up front but I would get the Heartland kit before I would drop 2gs on 1 rim... And if I had the Heartland, still don't think I would spend that much on one, especially when I would have to have my back rim chromed as well... I would wait a bit and see if he drops his price some, not going to be many moving at that price...

If you have the cash to throw away, I think it would look pretty sweet on there though.

Don't hold your breath on him dropping the price. Even if he did drop the price 50%, there are a 100 other wheels that blow that thing away in price and looks in my opinion. 21" on the Rocker?? Hell yeah!!! That rim at that price??? Hell no!!!
