Default Need info on HD 80 spoke wheels

Hey, all. I have a chance to buy a set of new 80 spoke HD wheels for my '10 Heritage. The wheels are for '00-06' Harley softails, etc. I know the bearings would need to be changed out from 3/4" to 25mm but is there any other reason the wheels wouldn't fit my '10? Is it just a matter of changing the bearings and everthing else lines and bolts right up? TIA for any help.

25mm bearings are thinner than 3/4. Might be more trouble than its worth. There is a million 25mm wheel options that would just bolt right on.

Bumping this to see if anybody knows if I'll have any problems doing what I hope to do.

You may need to get spacers (collars) for the rotor and pulley sides. Not spacers for the width of the hub although you should measure this too. The flange diameter off the hub MAY be different. Or simply use a 99-06 rotor and pulley.
