There's a chart on hdwheels.com that will tell you how big you can go on a stock bike.

Good Morning Megahed,

Hope your doing well. Happy to hear that you are in the market for wheels, we offer lots of different spoke and billet wheels that are of the highest quality.

The fatter 21 x 3.5" for the front will work just fine, but you will probably have to change your fender to accommodate the wider wheel. The largest you can go on the rear is a 18 x 8.5" with a 240 or 250 rear tire. We recommend going with either Metzeler or Avon because they are quality tires and we have found that our customers like these the best.


Give us a call if you have any questions or feel free to check out our website.

Ryd Safe.

Hit me up for spokes. 40,60,80,120 or fat 50. I can get what you need.
