Here is the rear wheel: http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US
You can get it cheaper at LSHD1.com: http://www.lshd1.com/servlet/Detail?no=871099
They have gone up about $100 in the past few years. I also put on tear drop floating rotors, and a chrome pulley.

I'm a laced wheel fan myself. I think laces look great with the big tires on the FB.
I don't think you are full of crap. I rented a FB on the big island of Hawaii. The northwest area through the pineapple fields is known as the windiest place on earth. You could really feel the wind tugging at the thing. My buddy was on a superglide and thought I was crazy until we traded bikes. It's real, at least in extreme conditions.
I changed the front because I like a more open wheel. I may or probably am full of crap but I think the crosswinds play havac on handling with the solid wheel. I've mostly owned dressers both electra glide and Road Glide and think even with all the extra frontage area they delt with wind better than my Fatboy Lo, especially the Road Glide. With the new Performance Machine 18" 5 spoke wheel on the front I think it does handle better in the wind. I do have a front wheel shake with no hands on the bars at mid speed but had it with the stock setup to.

thanks for the info, unfortunately they won't work for me. they're 16's, my 07 has 17's.
if they would have multiple sizes in the same style i think harley would sell more whls and not loose out to the aftermarket.
