Am sure the axle size is the same...3/4" on front and rear. Think the rear tire on 2003 is a 150 and on a 2000 is a 130???
I put '03 Fatboy wheels on an '04 Softail Std. Wanted tubeless tires. Had to use different spacers on front axle. Had to shim front caliper to get over rotor. My front fender is kinda narrow for the 16" tire. All else fit good.
Think you are ok on the front, but better check the back for spacing....remember something about the caliper spacer needing grinding down or something......
Good luck..........Pete
