19s or 21s

I want to throw some spoke wheels on my Fatboy but im very new to Harley so ill ask you guys. 19" is the wheel i'd prefer. I would like a black rim and chrome spokes but I also would like to change the fender also. I would like to do the same for the rear wheel. Thanks guys.

I went an 18 21 combo when I did mine and went with a lux fender up front..

Any reason you only want to go 19?

Good luck with whatever you go with...

I also have a 21 and 18 combo, but kept the stock front fender using the 130/60/21 tire.

I went with DNA 21 front 18 rear. I had problems getting the wheels centered, so be aware of DNA if you don't want to deal with a hassle.

If you are upgrading, go 21 (not 19) or you will be wishing you went with a 21 soon after installing the 19. I did the 21/18 (Sinister Big Daddy Chrome) on my Heritage and will be doing the same on my Deluxe shortly. Is there a specific reason you are considering 19? SJ Ron

Go with at least 21" the 23" looks nice to don't know about the handling.

No there was not a specific reason I wanted to go 19 besides that I didnt want it to look excessively huge. After seeing these pictures 21 is the way to go. Sweet bikes and thanks for the info. Much appreciated.
