Default Sinister Wheels - Ordered
After Pooch's Primo wheels and Kozy's DNAs...I couldn't resist the temptation any longer...

Called up Sinister and spoke to Ali. I can't say enough about the guy and his customer service. He answered all my questions, and gave me numerous quotes on different options.

I gave serious consideration to the the billet wheels, but in the end, I just loved the Big Daddy spoked wheels.

Put the order thru about 30 minutes ago. Here's the details:

16/21 combo w/ black spokes. Also ordered the rotors and pulley.

The sled


Let the waiting begin!

Thanks fellas! I've been thinking about the Shotgun, but I need to do a little saving first....

Seriously, this place might be the most expensive website I visit, and I never get anything delivered to my door with HDForums for a return address....

Yup. I've talked to Tab at Diamondback tires. I'm going order a Metzeler ME880 120/70-21 from him, whitewall'd.

Rear will be a Metzeler ME880, MU85B16, WWW.

WWWs were a must.

Thanks Warg. I'm sure I helped your decision about throwing a 21" up front on your FB!
