18's .... Need pics please.
 
Ok, my plan was to save up for some fat 50 spoke ride wrights, 21 front 16 rear but something has came up.

I've got a chance to buy a set of PM villains, 18 front and back, with the matching pulley and rotors with new avons for pretty damn cheap.

Only problem is I have never seen a fatboy or any other bike with 18's on it so I'm not sure how they'll look.

If any one out there is running an 18 front and rear or has pictures of this setup I'd be grateful to see it. I'm getting them from my father in law so if I don't like the look I can't just turn around and sell em so I need to be sure I'll be happy with it.

Thanks!!
Tommy

Here are my 18" Fat Spokes. I like the 18's. Somewhere between SoCal and Stock. Open's up the wheel, has a custom look, and no quite as extreme as the 21". The 18 on the back makes the bike looked slammed too. More so than the 16".

What tires are you using for the 18" WWW

I think 18s are almost mandatory on a fat Boy. I have no good pictures of my 18s but the pictures of WARG's bike says enough.

Thank you guys, you just made my decision easy.
I agree 100% with Warg, it's a good compromise between the socal look and stock.
Warg, your bike is lowered in the rear isn't it?? Surely just the 18 don't make it look THAT slammed by itself ?? Either way it looks damn good.

I'm getting the whole setup for less than I could buy the rotors and pulley and after seeing you guys stuff I know I'll like the look.

If anyone has a billet setup with 18's I'd still love to see it but I'm definitely sold on the look.

Yeah, its got air ride, so its slammed in that pic.

I definitely thought it was, but never seeing the 18" rear, I had to ask.
