Default 2.15 wheel on a Fatty
Just curious if anyone has installed a 21 x 2.15" (stock softail) wheel on a Fatboy, Heritage or Deluxe?

Can you post some front view photos? Not looking for 3" or 3.5" wheels

Thanks!

I like the profile of the 21" tire. Just not a fan of the front view with the huge fender. Still torn on the skinny look.

Yeah I wasn't sure how much difference there would be depending on what size tire was installed on the wheel. For the guys that posted pictures, what size tire are you guys running?
