wide tire kit for 2012 blackline
looking for a 200 kit for my blackline,can anyone tell me besides heartland who else makes a kit.heartland just seems abit pricey for what u get.any help would be great,ride safe
I agree it is pricey but your paying for the quality my man. HL puts out the highest quality wide tire kits out there. I paid 2500 for a fender,rock guard, license plate frame,struts, and a seat. It was worth every penny

Seems crazy expensive to me when you still have to buy the wheel and tire. I think I'd just go buy a bunch of used fatboy rear-end parts off ebay.
If your going for a 200 rear on the FXS why not just widen the current fender and struts? At least that would bring the price down 
As you can install the Fat Boy or Cross Bones rear tire 
I have seen a guy do a 200 swap on youtube along with a few other mods:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRKQwCLNNNw
And then when the budget permits you can upgrade the rear fender out, however for me if I am going to swap out the rear I will go down the same route as XJAYX did
As I owned a 200 before so if I would upgrade 240 or 250 would be my route

rewide tire kit
i already checked that site out branner its like 300 more than heartland but does include tire an rim,they arent specific about the kit fitting a 2012,website says 2000 an up.im not sure if the frames changed with the twin cam motors.i still think that the kits should not be that much if you are using your swingarm.thanks for the info though
