Hello

The difference between the RideWrightWheels and HDWheels are:

1. RideWrightWheels are made in US, HDWheels are made in China
2. RideWrightWheels are 304 s.s. and HDWheels use 201
3. RideWrightWheels offer lifetime warranty, to my knowledge HDWheels do not offer lifetime warranty.

thank you, about the 21x3.5 its the stock thickness and fits perfect under the fender. Plus imo the thicker wheel makes the 21" feel like it was made that way, the skinner ones imo kinda look out of place plus at faster speeds i hear they wobble but i would not know i have never ran a skinny 21"

 

I have a skinny 90 90-21 Avon WW on a 21 x2.15 wheel. I actually like the look,but if I could find a wider reasonably priced WWW I would most likely switch to fill up the fender a bit more.As far as wobbles and catching grooves it has never been a problem for me.It handles well ,tracks true and rides fine.But I rarely do over 80 mph so cant comment on higher speeds than that.It honestly does not feel much different than the stock fat 16.Maybe I am just used to it now.

 

I thought stock thickness on a Deluxe wheel was 3", is that not correct?

 

Besides with a 3.5 you can mount a 140 or even a 150 front tire...

Mimo.

 

nah im sure they are 3.5" the fatboys might be 3"

 

like i said i never ran it bro this is just something i was told by someone on the forum that is running the 2.15. I got my www for 250 from rrw bro. Imo the skinny wheel looks funny from the front view jmo though.

 

This isn't direct from Harley, but the Dunlop factory tire replacement page lists the Deluxe at 16x3 as I had thought....Bobber is right that the 3.5 looks "beefy", but it will be a different width from stock. I'm moving to 3.5 for the look, but never had any complaints about the ride the stockers gave me.
