When you order confirm the bearings but they should already be installed, mine are.
If you haven't ordered yet PM me and I'll send you a contact if interested. I went with the rear 18x3.5 and Avon 140/70 through DB just to avoid any potential rubbing issues.
If installing yourself does anyone know spacer sizes? I'd like to avoid reinstalling my stock wheels to take it somewhere and paying the additional labor when I can do it myself.

I am glad to see this post because I have been wondering if everything comes with the new wheels or if you can use the old stock stuff. I can't yet afford them but they are on my list. My problem is also picking wheels. I am going to stay with the 16's, I just love all that rubber out there but with 16's, we don't have a very large variety to pick from. Maybe by time I can afford some wheels maybe they will have a few more choices. I sure would like to see pics too Dude and I am going to follow your post so I can learn from it too. This is the greatest place to learn, I just love it!

One more thing, when you order make sure you tell them what year your bike is, the wheel bearing size on the front is different 07 onwards, also I'm not sure if the size of the pulley spacer is different, I have an 07 and I got the 3/8 spacer, I think someone else with an 05 got a 1/2, but best check, also like someone else said get some low dust pads, they make a big difference, Lyndalls on mine.

I'm trying to decide on pads now as well and still have a couple weeks before my calipers are back from the chrome shop.

I dont know, just search Ebay for Harley Lyndall pads, you can get 2 sets in a deal, much easier to kepp your wheels/tyres clean, I couldnt find anyone over here selling them so I ordered from the States.
