this might be a old ? but for you guys running the 21 inch on your deluxe or heritage what width are you running? I want to just run a 40 spoke up front and leave the 16 in the back but before I jump on 1 I wanted some opions first...Thanks

 

I went with a 3.5 rim And a 120 tire. Problem now is getting a good tire.

 

looks good kozy what kind of tire are you running?

 

I have a 3" wide rim and a 120 tire as well. I have an avon venom with a custom white wall put on by DB tires. It looks like Kozy has the same thing.

 

It's a Metz from db tires

 

Ive got a Metz. Carves corners 100% better than the rock hard dunlop. Its funny, the Dunlop is so hard it didnt make any squeeking sound when turning it on my garage floor while the Metzler squeeks quite loudly

 

So I guess I should go any less than 3 inches then..ok this helps alot!

 

I think your only option for a www on a 3" or 3.5" wide wheel is a Vee Rubber 120-70/21. Im not sure how they are now but 2 years ago I had one on my sled. The white was brown and it wore out fast and uneven. Good luck.

Im running a 40 spoke profile 21" up front, I like the way it looks just fine, esp being a profile wheel, kinda different. The only way ill change to a 3.5" wheel is if DB starts doing their custom Metz job, or if Metz or Avon makes a proper tire from the factory.
