Looks Good. I put a ThunderStar rim on my 06 night train. I like the cast wheels better than the spokes.

I like it man. Did you stick with the tube or go tubeless with the cast wheel? I like the simple wheels like that. The super fancy and super expensive ones don't do it for me.

Looks nice.. I never liked the feel of the spoke wheel on my NT...
But I went for a fat Thunderstar wheel on my NT because I started
doing more long distance traveling.

WOW, that looks GREAT! Never thought about goin 19 and fat. I dont think the fatter tire would look as good on mine as yours with my rake. Im still happy with mine as it fits the look of a bar hopper. You got a great lookin train man!
