Heritage cast wheels?

I have been considering getting some cast wheels for my 09 Heritage. I like the safety factor involved with tubeless tires and the ability to plug a tire on the road in an emergency. Had to push my 750 about seven miles once with a flat back in seventy one and I'm to old to do it again.

The pictures of the Sinister Wheels Billet Daddy cast wheels look about as close to spoked wheels without actually being spoked as I've seen. Those of your running these wheels had any problems with them? Do you reuse your stock pulleys and rotors?

I have never seen that HogPro rim before. It is nice looking. A couple of people I know bought their rims at HogPro several years back. Phil and Robert are great to deal with. they even opened up on Saturday to accommodate my friends to get them wheels put on.

I don't have a lot of experience with wheels/tires, but if you can run tubeless tires on these wheels, you've got my attention! That's one of the only things I can't stand about my Heritage (would hate to be stranded in the middle of nowhere). Those Billet Daddy's look pretty close to spokes!

Well damn, hadn't seen those Hogpro matrix wheels before. They look every bit as nice as the Billet daddys from Sinister. I think both would keep the old school looks of the Heritage intact.
