Thanks guys. Yes, I did need an extra spacer. My local Indy gave me 4 different ones and I just used the one I needed and took back the rest. What I needed was a left side spacer for whatever reason. The right side was perfect with what I already had, but once I tried to line up the brake side, there was a gap. Other than that, it was an easy bolt on. I did reuse my tube. Normally I never reuse tubes but this one was not very old and when its time for a tire I'll get a new tube then. Man, its time for a new sig pic....lol.
panheadrich, As far as the back wheel goes, I am going to use a chrome Fatboy disc.

imo i think they made a huge mistake making these available only for those years. i think they would have been better off making the available for the newer models.
I emailed Midwest about these wheels last year. I was informed that they estimated that the majority of their sales in wheels were for pre 2000 bikes so they focused on these particular year models first. I was then told that wheels for 2000 up models are in the works.
Well, I took it for a long ride to the family's house for the Thanksgiving dinner. No problems at all, and its probably a tad smoother than the old 21 just because of its extra weight. Just wanted to post up a final picture for anyone who wanted to see all done.
