Thats how KC is, Ive bought 3 sets of rims from them and it usually takes 2 weeks to get them in. But they always come through, great looking wheels. Im goin to order fat spokes from KC in 2 weeks. Prob gonna be like dirty and it be nice weather and not able to ride, cause my bike will be in pieces, Damn it

Dirty, I just cant believe these wheels dont come with all the proper spacers for a direct bolt on mod. They sell a **** load of wheels and its like trying to reinvent the wheel to figure out the spacing. I dont get it. When you order these wheels they ask you what bike is it going on. Why would they ask that if you have to get the wheels do a mock up on the bike and then order the proper spacers.????

I completely agree with you, one thing i am hoping for with that spacer is it centering my rear wheel, in the middle of the fender, if it was center i could run that 160 avon, otherwise it rubs on the left side. hopefully spacers can fix that. i understand i may have to shave the caliper a little though.
lol good answer bro, did you order any spacers for your pullys or anything, ive been reading all kinds of stuff on those rims, but i cant find anyone w them on a bike like ours. Trying to get all my stuff in order before i order them. almost went with some PM rims, but its real tough to beat the price of those DNA's. I am ready to get back in the us so i can start putting mine together, its gonna suck when the nice weather hits and i dont have this thing up. got a pretty bad *** rear fender to throw on it, and some 16" apes, i ordered some different ones that i havent seen on an fx front end yet.
Nope no spacers . Im keeping the stock pullys so my spacers will work .. hopefully
And from what im told from KC , is that if you run stock pullys the stock spacers will work . The rim is the same as the stock . Pullys are where it gets tricky .

Maybe something changed up because i used a stock pulley with my DNA fat spoked wheels and i needed new spacers lathed... My rear wheel was off by about 1/2" ... and i needed new spacers lathed so my wheel would be centered to run a 157mm Avon venom tire.... strange! My bike was done at a HD dealer also.
notice the stock pulley with DNA's.... older set-up before my SS pulley

Might be the difference from FXST to your bike ... i dunno , but Brock told me no spacers needed on my FXST .... if he is wrong im going to be pissed off because I have no idea where to get spacers
